Better tell Peter there was no U-19 World Cup in South Africa in 1999, and he was 20 then anyway.

Made a good read IMO.

Haha really? Guess he's getting his dates mixed up!

Add a comment to his article saying that. Will give him a good laugh I bet!

Interesting final.

Hamish made 15 off 40-odd balls keeping wicket, McGlashan 53 off 36 slogging at seven...should have realised Marshall was useless there and then imo

10 times more interesting than Skippy's early blogging efforts, IMO.

That's a great squad.

I remember thinking David Kelly was a really good player, but I see he ended up having pretty ordinary stats.

haha, James Franklyn....I think the other enigma from that list was Jarrod Englefield...very talented player, but hopelessly underperformed at domestic level.

he'll be turning dutch in a year or 2 max... haha

currently one of my coaches at my club in holland(played twice with him for the 1st XI)
indeed a very talented but also underated batsman

I ran out David Kelly in a Form 2 trial in Dunedin.









Unfortunately, I was batting with him at the time...

Peter just responded to everyone's comments so far

Have a read guys and feel free to contribute by the way of a comment.

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

An enjoyable read. Now, if you could just find a player to blog that I like...

 

[James]

You have a response Heath

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Good lad. Quick response time. I'll try and think of a question more targeted to him... Without being harsh.

 

[JimmyGS]

Lol at the comment from Reece Y.

That is all.

 

[Somerset]

Really good first-up column from McGlashan, hopefully he'll be writing regular blogs on CW - its great to see cricketers like Sinclair and McGlashan associated with the site too.

 

[James]

Thanks Somerset - it certainly is

Peter just left another comment on his blog btw people - Cricket Web - Features: Drinks Duties on Tour: Tales of an Inexperienced 12th man
