Tell us your highest score/wickets

By the way... please don't laugh... I love cricket... but my problem is... I'm ITALIAN.... All the four times I batted down the order (obiouvsly) and I didn't know how to play spin... Got out always to the first ball to a spinner.. always bowled and once stumped in the last over of the match tryng to slog it...

Best Batting: 44

Best Bowling: 8 overs, 5 Maidens, 8 wickets for 4 runs.

You can only get better mate.

Hmmm , you seems like one for canada for the future mate.

Fair point 70-degree i was very good up until 18 and after that my studies took priority. My intesrest in playing professional cricket was killed by the policy of Warwickshire county at that time. I was nominated by my school every year for a trial based on wickts and runs scored for school games, but like many other guys who went for trials the coaches would turn a blind eye on certain kids, not even watching them bat, we quickly realised that the players were picked before the trials we were there just as a PR exercise. Its not just asian players who were neglected but white kids who were good but from a working class background. There was an asian guy playing for the u19 team, he was very poor but his dad was wealthy.

Beacuse of this i gave up any hope and just played cricket for fun and concentrated on a better career which i love very much. Just beacuse you dnt play county cricket does not mean you not good enough. Many kids in england are talented but its about being given a chance.

As for my bowling figures 6 for 9, they were in a sunday league game which i play for  a mates team just to have a laugh with mates, the standard is ridculous, me getting wicktes says a lot as i cannot bowl to save my life.

Goodluck. I know that in cricket its not how good you are its who you know most of the times. Its a shame really because alot of talented youngsters who are from poor backgrounds do not get a break.

Yeah ! Its real disgraceful but have a look at my signature.

Anyways , I am from an Island and people from it are hardly recongnised. Now the country I come , its real hard to make it too the windies side. Cuffy , Mclean , butler and W. Davis are some from my country.

Now there is a guy who was from St. Vincent and the guy desribe by many as the best fast bowler in the west indies who did not play for west indies. The guy said he bowled worrell for a duck and he was told by wes hall that he was better than him (hall). Now he played the trial match to know who would get pick to represent west indies and he said that sobers also make sure that hall (they are from barbados) would get ahead of him. He said sobers went after his bowling and he also said sobers stated that in his book as well.

He now said that , players from smaller islands have to do twice the work of a good player to get in the side.
