| Debut for Porthleven | 1995 v Troon at home - a 10 wicket win and I didn't get to bat or bowl! I nearly packed it in there and then! | ||||||||||||||||
| Greatest cricketing moment | winning the league title last season, coupled with winning the Ashes - we got slightly less publicity but it still meant a lot to PCC! | ||||||||||||||||
| Worst cricketing moment | losing last years Andrew Cup final by 1 run off the last ball when I was on strike. I felt like I'd let everyone down, and to make it worse then had to pick up a 'losers' trophy and force a smile! Hopefully this year things will be different............! | ||||||||||||||||
| Funniest cricketing moment | I can't give full details, but it concerns Chris Bray in a friendly about 15 years ago. It was something he said, and those that know him can probably imagine!! | ||||||||||||||||
