  • 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.

  • 362 – April 2017
    THE HAMPSHIRE CRICKET SOCIETY Patrons: John Woodcock Shaun Udal NEWSLETTER No 362 – APRIL 2017 MEETINGS Wednesday 5th April 2017 - Meeting The Society is privileged to welcome Darren Bicknell to this evening’s meeting. Members will recall him as being one of county cricket’s most prolific batsmen over a 20-year period - an astonishing timescale in the modern era. Tall (6 feet 4 inches), and left-handed, he usually opened the innings but was equally adept in the middle order. His consistency over such a long period was remarkable, as exemplified by his centuries against Hampshire. He made four in all. His first -105 at The Oval in 1987 - was his maiden hundred in first-class cricket. He compiled his fourth- 103 at Trent Bridge -17 years later, in 2004. Through his ability, and his demeanour, he was also one of the most respected of all county cricketers. When he retired in 2006, Angus Fraser wrote in the following year’s Wisden that “….(he) is a lovely lad – and the best non–Test batsman I ever bowled to. His height allowed him to get over and control the bouncing ball. But for Mike Atherton and Alec Stewart, he would have had plenty of chances”. DARREN JOHN BICKNELL was born in Guildford on 24 June 1967. He made his debut for Surrey in 1987 and was an integral part of the side until 1999. He was capped in 1990. In his early years, he was tipped as a test prospect and went on three England A tours. His first was to Zimbabwe in 1989-90, under the captaincy of Mark Nicholas.
