Knight was given his middle name in honour of the s English Test bowler Hedley Verity who was killed in World War II and is a distant family relation. Born in WatfordHertfordshire, Knight was educated at Felsted School in Essex and Nick Knight University and was an outstanding cricketer from an early age. In domestic cricket, he began his career with Essex in before transferring to Warwickshire four years later. He was captain of Warwickshire from toand led them to victory in the County Championship in the season. He retired from first-class cricket after the season and Nick Knight now a member of the Sky Sports cricket commentary team. He finished his career with 16, runs at His highest score Nick Knight an unbeaten He Nick Knight in the Test arena and made only 1 test Nick Knight, an innings of vs Pakistan at Headingley in His next best score was 96 vs Zimbabwe in a drawn game at Nick Knight in — The most obvious reason for this was his technique. Never afraid of genuine fast bowling, his footwork was often not decisive enough which caused him at times to appear to be backing away from short balls and his test innings Nick Knight ended giving a catch to the slips or the wicket-keeper. As a fine fielder and a hard worker, it is surprising that he did not play more for England — Nick Knight England team was not blessed with too many good batsman during Knight's era. However two of the better Nick Knight were Michael Atherton and Mark Butcher with whom Knight was vying for a place for most of his career. Atherton too was captain of England until so would have been an automatic choice for opening batsman. Knight was a far more successful, and certainly regular, one-day player for England. In one-day cricket, this backing away in fact helped him score a lot of runs and became something of a hallmark. Debuting inhe scored centuries Nick Knight his second and third innings in ODI cricket, on consecutive days against a Pakistan bowling attack that included Wasim Nick Knight and Waqar Younis. Knight Nick Knight selected for the World Cup team in and Nick Knight his World Cup debut in the tournament. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. English cricketer.

Major teams England, Essex, Warwickshire. Education Felsted School; Loughborough University. There are two Nick Knights. One is a flamboyant left-handed Nick Knight for England's one-day side, who exploits fielding restrictions in the first 15 overs by slapping the ball over mid-on and carving it through point. The other is a tentative Test player, fallible outside Nick Knight stump and to the straight, full-length delivery when he plays round his front pad and falls away to the off side. His two best Test innings v Pakistan, Headingley inand 96 in the flippin'- murdered-'em draw v Zimbabwe at Bulawayo in seemed to set him up, but he was dropped after a poor series in New Zealand that winter, and has won only five more caps, four of them in Knight was harshly left out of the World Cup team inbut seemed set to make amends in after several impressive displays in the VB Series, which led seasoned Australian observers to wonder why on earth Nick Knight wasn't a Test regular. But after England's failure in the World Cup, he called time on his international one-day career - but not Tests - to enable him to concentrate on leading Warwickshire. Knight, who began his career at Essex but moved to Warwickshire inis a world-class fielder - whether at third slip, in the gully, at short midwicket or as a cover sweeper - and an outgoing, hard-to-suppress team man. He announced his intention to retire at the end ofand soon after was unveilled as the latest member of Sky Sports' commentary team.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • 285 - November 2008
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Frank Bailey Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER No. 285 - NOVEMBER 2008 Wednesday 12 November 2008 – Meeting This year’s beneficiary, JOHN CRAWLEY, makes a welcome return to the Society this evening. His first visit was in October 2005 when members enjoyed a most pleasant evening in his company. John Crawley has endeared himself to Hampshire supporters during his seven years with the County. He has reinforced his penchant for making high scores by being the only batsman in the County’s history to record two triple centuries, both at the expense of the Nottinghamshire bowlers. He made 301 not out at Trent Bridge in 2005 and then followed it up with an unbeaten 311 at The Rose Bowl a year later. Virtually all Hampshire supporters felt it was a great pity that Shane Warne declared when our speaker was tantalisingly close to Dick More’s record 316 for the County. When he last spoke to us he felt that the former innings was the best crafted and that, in respect of the latter, the emphasis had to be on winning the match, which Hampshire duly did. Moreover, he made 272 on his Hampshire debut at Canterbury in 2002; he has therefore recorded three of the six highest innings for the County. All three innings are the highest made for Hampshire in the last 70 years – a phenomenal achievement. He might even have made a triple century in the latter innings but was unluckily run out at the non-striker’s end when a Shaun Udal drive was deflected on to the stumps by Min Patel.

  • Ashley Cowan (G88-93)
    ASHLEY COWAN (G88-93) Ashley was born in 1975 in Hitchin in Hertfordshire. He made his first-class debut for Essex against Derbyshire at Chelmsford in August 1995 and picked up his first wicket in first-class cricket during the following Championship fixture, against Yorkshire at Headingley – the victim was Darren Gough. The right-armer cemented a regular place in the 1st XI in 1996 when he picked up 37 Championship wickets – including a hat-trick against Gloucestershire at Colchester. 1997 proved to be his most rewarding campaign, when his domestic performances earned him a spot in England’s squad to tour the West Indies. Cowan finished second in Essex’s Championship bowling averages with 52 wickets @ 25.65, and was the County’s leading wicket-taker in the AXA one-day League and NatWest Trophy. In the NatWest Trophy he enjoyed one of his finest hours (or closer to three) when he ensured Essex took a firm grip of the Final against Warwickshire at Lord’s from the off. His dismissal of former team-mate Nick Knight in the first over was the prelude to an outstanding analysis of 12-3-29-3. Essex’s nine-wicket victory provided Cowan with the first of two knock-out winner’s medals in consecutive seasons as the County returned to Lord’s the following season in the Benson and Hedges Cup Final. Cowan again picked up three wickets as Leicestershire were brushed aside. In between these crowning glories came a largely undistinguished trip to the Caribbean with England, where he was restricted to just three first-class matches in between the Tests.

He is a member of the Nottinghamshire General Committee. He was ordained in the clergy on 13 June 1965 and was a minister for 42 years, 26 of which he spent serving the Borough of Rushcliffe. He has always been an enthusiastic cricketer. A left-handed batsman and wicket-keeper, he played over 300 games for Club and Clergy. Among his other activities are supporting Notts. County and amateur dramatics, where he has been known to play a vicar! The Rev. Canon Haydock has visited a number of Cricket Societies this winter and the Society extends a warm welcome for his visit to Hampshire tonight. His address will be preceded by the Society’s Annual General Meeting. Wednesday 7 January 2009 – Report The evening in the company of Bob Herman and Richard Lewis was almost worthy of a book. As David Fish mentioned in his vote of thanks, the evening was akin to a warm fireside chat in the company of friends. The two ex- Hampshire cricketers spoke for over an hour and a half and one feels that, if time permitted, they would still be going some twelve hours later as the editor has sat down to draft his report. It was an evening of the very essence of Society meetings as they recalled the on and off field exploits of their former team-mates and their opponents.
