  • 299 - April 2010
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Frank Bailey Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER No. 299 - APRIL 2010 MEETING Wednesday 31 March 2010 The Society ends its winter programme by welcoming MATT JOHNS, Environmental Consultant to the Rose Bowl Development Project. Educated at Manchester University and King’s College, London, he manages his own specialist business consultancy, based in Bath, on environmental issues. Given the number of new sports stadia being constructed in the United Kingdom, his address is bound to give a unique insight on a contemporary subject relating to such new building works. COMINGS AND GOINGS Terry Crump’s excellent Rose Bowl Round-Up winter editions, and the Rose Bowl website have given details of the numerous new signings for the forthcoming summer, i.e. Simon Jones, Ajantha Mendis, Shahid Afridi, Kabir Ali, Neil Mackenzie and Abdul Razzaq. There has never been such an influx of high quality players in a close season in Hampshire’s history. CHRIS TREMLETT It is always sad when a player who has graduated through the County’s system goes elsewhere. Chris Tremlett’s case is even more so. It means that in the last twenty years, only Shaun Udal and Adrian Aymes have enjoyed a normal career span in the first team after progressing through Hampshire’s youth system. And, of course, even the former did not quite see out his career with the County. It must be hoped that the hugely talented Liam Dawson, James Vince and Hamza Riazuddin of the current crop of youngsters are able to become first-team regulars in the future and remain with the County, at least for the most productive stages of their careers.
