In his formative years, a young Chris Balderstone played for Paddock CC in the Huddersfield League. He was later, in 1959 and 1961, a professional with Baildon CC in the Bradford League.

Chris Balderstone spent 10 years with Yorkshire, playing alongside Don Wilson. Also, by 1970, a young Phil Carrick was emerging so Balderstone accepted the overtures of and moved south to Leicestershire. His move coincided with some of the most successful years in the history o f the Midlands club.

In 1972, they won the Benson & Hedges cup; 1974 saw victory in the Sunday League and the club`s first County Championship arrived in 1975. That year also saw them achieve a cup and league double as they won the Benson and Hedges trophy for the second time. A third and final victory in th e Benson & Hedge s in 1985 was in Balderstone` s penultimate year at Grace Road. His two test matches saw him come up against the West Indies pace attack (1976) as they developed the firepower that was to d ominate world cricket for some time.

After he left Leicestershire, he went into umpiring and spent 12 years on the first class panel.

He stayed in the north - west for 11 years and this period included the only season Carlisle United spent in the old first division (1974/75). Indeed, after the first three games, they led the table but sank back into the second division at the end of the season.

After he left Carlisle United, he moved to South Yorkshire with Doncaster Rovers. While with Doncaster, Balderstone establish ed a rec ord that can certainly never be broken.

On 15 September 1975, he was playing for Leicestershire against at Chesterfield`s Queen`s Park in the County Champ ionship. He was unbeaten on 51 at close of play on the second day and then raced off to Do ncaster to play for them in a 1 - 1 draw with Brentford.

He then returned to Chesterfield, completed his century and helped Leicestershire to their first County Championship. There t he followed a brief spell with Queen of the South in Scotland.

His final Clu b was Enderby Town, later called Leicester United. The club played in the Leicestershire Senior League and later in the South ern League. The Club was wound up in 1996.

In 1984, Chris Balderstone played for East Lancashire CC in the Lancashire League against Nelson CC, who included in their si de one Barry Wood, another Yorkshireman who moved counties, in his case to Lancashire, and who later played .

All who knew him , including , West Indian Test bowler and later in and Bernie Cromack, who was a contem porary of Balderstone`s at Grace Road, agreed that Balderstone was a perfect gentleman in all he did.
