Historical List of Players

(Updated to end of Season 2023)

*

Historically, players who have played a match for The Club since its inception back in 1998, have been awarded an incremental number, much like anyone who has represented their country. For instance, Edmund Neil Lester, who is credited with forming the team back in its heyday – then known as the Jude the Obscure – and playing and opening the batting in the very first game, is recognised as being Player #1.

Players denoted in yellow are recognised as ‘Current Players’. The match they made their debut in, their score and bowling figures are noted in the right hand columns.

By clicking on Match number XXX you will be taken to the scorecards for that particular game and any associated match report.

Meandering Pointless Points of Note

The more eagle-eyed amongst you will have noticed the slight irregularity concerning players #92 and #93 in the above list. Untrustworthy and faltering memory will have it that Andrew Cavanagh purchased his Club shirt ahead of Mr Reeves, and although Mike played two matches before him (match #119 v Wootton & Boars Hill CC), Andy retained his player number of #92 – ahead of Mr Parkinson who also debuted in match #121, by batting in the order before him. Mike didn’t bat in either game and doesn’t affect things either way, however it does add to the legend of the tale that never was.

J. vdG. Webster

Although packing no less than a Club record 33 letters into his full name, Johannes van den Grootschnyke Webster does have one of the shortest nicknames, Jan – and thank god for that.

The above statement is in acknowledgement that The MAD are yet to have a Sri Lankan* guest for the team.
