Career
He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-fast bowler. He played for Essex throughout the whole of his career between 1995 and his benefit season of 2006. His debut first class match, against Derbyshire, came in August 1995.
In the latter stages of his first-class career he fluctuated between Division Two and Division One with his team, finally finishing midtable in the 2005 Frizell County Championship second division.
Trivia His benefit year was sponsored by a local strip club in Chelmsford, and an escort agency, night owls, in wickford. Interviewed by Anglia Television in 2003, he stated that he had often considered training as a priest.
This was something of a surprise to some of his colleagues.
