Which famous cricketers have you played cricket with/against?

Keagan Africa (SA U19)
James Hildreth (Somerset)

International Vice-Captain
My mate played tennis with SS Das and lost.

I played against a U15s side coched by the crappy Marshall twin, and i've talked to Grant Robinson a few times,but he's not that great,and out clubs first team with a freind in it played against adam sanford and reon king,we got bowled out for 32 and 36.
 

Sir Redman

State Vice-Captain
Darryl Tuffey, Ian Butler and Peter McGlashan all play in my competition. So far though I've only played against Butler, because I wasn't in the Prems when we played against Weymouth (Tuffey and McGlashan's club).

What a tight git.

Would have loved to have seen what happened if it had been the other way around.

Same team:

Stuart Clark
Jason Krejza
Dom Thorneley (my dad coached him)
Josh Mangan (if you consider him famous)

Against:

Aaron Bird
Corey Richards
Greg Mail
Moises Henriques


All, except for Henriques and Mangan, played in my team because the NSW blues come to my home town and play an exhibition match every year, where local players are selected to play. I was lucky enough to play in the Thornely captained team.

International Coach
I played indoor cricket against M. Bevan, was a fast bowler then, very quick, or so he seemed.

Bowled to Lance Cairns in the nets, hardly hit the ball, but it sailed out of the ground:)

I also bowled to Bob Hawke, shaped pretty well.

Very interesting. Where'd you go to school?
