Estaban Nino
Edit ProfileCareer
He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-fast bowler. Nino"s debut cricket match was contested between the North and South of Argentina, in 2002, Nino representing the North along with future first-class team-mates Gaston Arizaga and Alejandro Ferguson. The following year, Nino represented the youth national team in four games in the Americas Under-19 Championship, and again in the same competition during 2005.
In 2006, Nino played for the senior Argentine team for the first time, in Division Two of the Interstate Commerce Commission World Cricket League, playing games against Panama, Suriname and the Bahamas.
Argentina were promoted from their group and Nino played in Division One games against United States, Canada and the Cayman Islands. The World Cricket League was reformatted for 2007, and Argentina were placed in Division Three, where Nino played five games, and were promoted into the second division at the first attempt.
Nino maintained a good bowling average, taking six wickets during the competition. Argentina were promoted at the end of the campaign into Division Two, despite losing their first fixture, a last-ball game against an Italian team including former Lancashire all-rounder Joe Scuderi.
However, the team finished bottom of the table in the 2007-2008 campaign.
Nino has remained, along with Esteban MacDermott, in the Argentine tailend since the very beginning of his career.
