Which famous cricketers have you played cricket with/against?

[Armadillo]

Seeing Roger Telemachas playing against our first team today gave me the idea for this thread. Apart from him, there's Devang Gandhi the ex Indian player.

EDIT: Just seen the title, can't edit, rather than for its with.

 

[Kweek]

for; Ryan Le Loux, Daan van Bunge, Tim de Leede, Adeel Raja and Robbie Hart(either friendlies or club vs society thingies)
Against: none I can think of really.

 

[Barney Rubble]

None. For or against. I'm rubbish.

 

[Smudge]

Played with: Mark Richardson, Brendon McCullum, Nathan McCullum, Stephen Mather, Evan Marshall

Against: Aaron Gale, James McMillan, bowled to Saleem Elahi in the nets (and bowled alongside Saqlain Mushtaq in that net session).

 

[33/3from3.3]

James Franklin was bowling to JMarshall in the net out the back of Jade stadium,
there was a big crowd but i was at the front and they gave 7 oor 8 people a bowl, i had a go and it wasnt awful, on leg stump and blocked

 

[cpr]

Played against John Crawley during his Lancashire days, he was coming back from a broken finger so was playing for the MCC against our school. Needless to say he pretty much smacked everyone about, smashed one of the teachers car windows (and refused to pay for it!)

 

[Langeveldt]

Grant Elliott (SA A and Gauteng)
Keagan Africa (SA U19)
James Hildreth (Somerset)
Tom Webley (Somerset)
Rob Woodman (Somerset)
James Hudson (England 12th man)

also bowled at Jimmi Adams and Nixon McLean in a muckaround net

My mate played tennis with SS Das and lost.

I played against a U15s side coched by the crappy Marshall twin, and i've talked to Grant Robinson a few times,but he's not that great,and out clubs first team with a freind in it played against adam sanford and reon king,we got bowled out for 32 and 36.

 

[Pedro Delgado]

An old work collegue bowled Martin Crowe in the Lord's nets once.

A tenuous effort.

 

[Sir Redman]

Darryl Tuffey, Ian Butler and Peter McGlashan all play in my competition. So far though I've only played against Butler, because I wasn't in the Prems when we played against Weymouth (Tuffey and McGlashan's club).

What a tight git.

Would have loved to have seen what happened if it had been the other way around.

I also played against Roger Telemachus yesterday whilst playing for RACS mens team.

 

[benchmark00]

Same team:

Stuart Clark
Jason Krejza
Dom Thorneley (my dad coached him)
Josh Mangan (if you consider him famous)

Against:

Aaron Bird
Corey Richards
Greg Mail
Moises Henriques


All, except for Henriques and Mangan, played in my team because the NSW blues come to my home town and play an exhibition match every year, where local players are selected to play. I was lucky enough to play in the Thornely captained team.

[archie mac]

I played indoor cricket against M. Bevan, was a fast bowler then, very quick, or so he seemed.

Bowled to Lance Cairns in the nets, hardly hit the ball, but it sailed out of the ground

I also bowled to Bob Hawke, shaped pretty well.

 

[SJS]

Bishan Bedi, Madan Lal, Mohinder Amarnath, Surinder Amarnath, Manoj Prabhakar, Kirti Azad, Raman Lamba, Ramesh Saxena, Vijay Mehra, Abbas Ali Baig, Rajinder Goel, Maninder Singh, Atul Wasan - International cricketers I can recall playing with or against.

Lloyd Mash was in the year above me at school and was two years ahead at my cricket club, but I played with him a bit in school cricket.

 

[sideshowtim]

Douggy Walters (training session thing with Hawkesbury Hawks), Stuey Clark and Nathan Bracken (came to our school one day before he was well known for a game for some NSW Blues promo thing).

Very interesting. Where'd you go to school?
