Reaching my only career half-century off 38 balls, at age 15. Went on to score 71 (52b, 13x4).

Cricketer Of The Year
78* of 35 overs
that felt good, my first half century....wasn't my best ever innings...but getting a 50 felt so good.
6/17 in 8 overs
also this year playing in the 2nd XI, with an ankle the size of a peach! well strepped in, and almost won us the game after a abysmal batting display...

Sutton Coldfield 116-2 beat Walmey 114-5 by eight wickets.
A Crampton 58* (35)
Had an absolutely gun season that year, best way to top it off.

Well I mentioned this in another thread but Im still on a bit of a high.
- Scoring 2 and winning man of the match on Saturday at FNB stadium. 80 000 seater stadium where the 2010 World Cup final will be played
also
- My first Test match net duty as a very young up-and-comer against the West Indies in 91 (IIRC)
and finally
- My 1st ton. A low standard game but the club framed the scorecard and it still has pride of place in my study.

probably my first century, was 96* after the first week so had to go back and bat again the following Saturday, i finished with 115. My Highest innings comes close, made 175 one time and it was just as good as i could possibly bat.
captaining a premiership a few years ago was pretty good too, the whole season was great personally, averaged 45 with the bat and 14 with the ball.
Outside of cricket it would probably be my badminton feats. Was the #1 player in the college sides and i had to play some awesome players and i was pretty happy with the way i went.
Also playing rep Rugby League when i was a bit younger was a bit of a thrill, unfortunately i ended up retiring pretty young.

BARNES OUT
Had some good moments in cricket and league. cbf naming them all.
Best moment was easily kicking a field goal to win a qualifying final in u/16's league. Was from 30 out, too, which is pretty big for a 15 year old.

7/8 off 11 overs vs Plymouth in the UK.
- actually, it's playing against NSW in a one off match and taking 1/45 off 9...and being bowled by a ball from Don Nash that I didn't really see...and hitting M.Bevan in the testicles

Plymouth have been doing that to everyone else instead this year... some guy took a 10-fer in one the divisions.Son Of Coco said:7/8 off 11 overs vs Plymouth in the UK.

For me...
1) Being in the middle when my Exeter CC six-a-side team (average age 14) chased down 69 off five overs this summer.
2) Xpression FM FC winning the Third Division of the Intramural League
And there are individual saves and double-saves goalkeeping that rank pretty highly on retrospect.

International 12th Man
Surprisingly none of my 4 junior hat-tricks rate. Poor opposition I suppose.
One of my favourite moments is going in at number 11 needing 35 to avoid the follow on. Last ball before drinks I actually play an aggressive stroke, call for the run, but get sent back by my partner (now on 52). Go to drinks, come back, he's bowled first ball. In our partnership of 32 I managed a wonderful 0*(31), and we (obviously) failed to avoid the follow on. Was a great sense of achievement doing my job as a tail ender though.
Also getting cleaned up by a 6'6" 140kg goalie in Hockey was pretty awesome, when I'm now 6'4" and 64kg. He was my goalie too, it was funnier because I'd run all the way from our attacking 25yd line to tackle the opponent (who started at the halfway mark), then we finally hit the D and he just jumps out of the way. I am then left wondering why I'm flat on my back.
