Great Bromley and District Cricket Club team
1st XI
Captain :
Pip Allam
Captain of the sunday side since 2005 and started playing way back in 1987 as a young lad. A disciplined top order batsman who can occupy the crease for days but rarely misses out on a four ball. Pip leads by example in the field with probably the safest pair of hands in the side.
Vice Captain :
Richard Lawson
Tall left handed opener who is vice captain of the sunday side. Can produce decent runs if he gets going but is occaisionally loose early on. Has become the specialist slip fielder by default rather than any ability possessed.
Players
Peter Brinkley
Played his first game for the club in 1981, Pedro is the most experienced current player at Great Bromley. Has scored thousands of runs and taken hundreds of wickets. Can bat anywhere in the order and rarely bowls two consectutive balls the same. Gives good advice in the field and as a former captain knows the game very well.
Jack Edwards
Wicket keeper batsman who plays for the colts. Is starting to play more for the senior sides and has alot of potential. Has proved he is not intimidated by senior cricket and will no doubt start scoring more runs over the coming seasons.
Liam Fisher
All rounder who has come through the colts set up. An attacking batsman who can bat anywhere in the top/middle order. Bowls at a good pace and swings the ball. In 2009 he devised a 6 hitting competion for the season which, of course, he won.
Jake Foley
Very talented left handed batsman and right arm leg spinner. Is involved with the Essex Colts side and has a bright future in the game. First player to recieve the coveted Mallard Trophy in 2009.
Matt Foley
Joined the club in 1987 and has made over 400 appearences. Started out as a seam up bowler and was successful with over 250 wickets. In recent times has turned to his attentions to perfecting the art of spin bowling. Can score useful runs in the lower middle order and always keeps the bar well stocked. Which makes him a very popular club member.
Paul Gaffney
Quick opening bowler and lower order batsman who improves year on year. Has become a strike bowler and rarely fails to pick up at least one wicket. His uncomplicated approach to batting always leaves him asking the question "whats the point in playing defensive!?"
David Hardy
Captained the Two Counties side in the first four years of being formed. Did a terriffic job in building a side that now seems to be blossoming. Makes useful contributions with the bat and is stunning to watch in the field.
Harry Hitchcock
Huge opening bowler who is recovering from a knee operation during the off season. Gets alot of bounce and can be a real handful for batsmen. Can hit the ball a long way but tends to play by numbers.
Liam Holyman
Nick Holyman
Joined the club in 2009 and performed well in his first season. Bowls accurate medium pacers and is a solid lower order batsman. Has become a valued member of the team in a short space of time and feels like he has played for Bromley for years. Writes excellent match reports for the Two Counties games.
Billy Huggins
Another former colt who opens the bowling for the saturday side. After a couple of seasons without playing came back and had a terriffic season in 2009 ending in him being the leading wicket taker. Bats in the lower order and has made useful contributions.
Craig Perrin
Technically sound opening batsman who is becoming a run machine. A product of the colts set up and is still improving. Makes batting look easy and a very tidy wicketkeeper. Will always have an interesting excuse as to why he wasn't out.
Louis Perrin
Came through the colts and won the Two Counties Division 6 title in his first season as captain of the saturday side in 2009. Has become a very solid middle/top order batsman and is exceptional in the field. His medium pacers take many wickets and still baffles opposition batsmen with his terribly disguised slower ball.
Matt Pirie
Tall, elegant, powerful middle order batsman with bags of ability. Many bowlers afternoons have been spoiled by Matt as he can accumulate runs at an incredible rate with an astonishing array of shots. Bowls off a couple of paces and can be very tricky to get away. Started playing for the club in 1988.
Simon Prestney
Hard hitting middle order batsman who can destroy an attack in a matter of overs. Can be hit or miss but when it pays off no bowler is safe. Can keep wicket but is most favourably known for the terriffic tea he produces.
Jordan Read
Technically very good batsman who can score runs effortlessly. Scored his first hundred in 2009 and more are expected over the coming seasons. Has been known to take stunning catches in the field and is another product of the colt set up.
Sam Rowe
Bats with great technique and always looks like getting runs. Bowls left arm seam up and can really tie an end down. Unfortunately most the season he is unable to play due to work commitments.
Tom Rowe
Hard hitting batsman who punishes anything on leg stump but has a tendency to get out around 30. Bowls accurate medium pacers and normally registers a wicket. Like his brother is lost to farming for over half the season.
Matt Wareing
Left arm seam up bowler who has started to open the bowling for the senior side. Improves each week he plays and will no doubt become a very good player. Has alot of potential with the bat and contributes well in the middle/lower order.
Rob Wareing
Accurate right arm medium pacer who doesn't always get the wickets he deserves. Bats in the lower order but is fully capable of scoring runs. Hates baseball.
