Pen Portrait

Danny regularly opens for the first XI with his miserly and accurate bowling crucial to limited overs fixtures. Another virtuoso performance brought him the bowling award in 2001. He has now bagged over 600 wickets for the club and shares the distinction with Geoff Desborough of having taken all 10 wickets in an innings (10-23 in 1986). Danny can also be an explosive bat down the order. Only blotted his record with a few ducks this term.

Pete is one of the club's newer members, but has already established himself as one of the lads. A fine debut tourist in 2001 - he saved his best performance for the Bournemouth nightclubs. Out in the middle meanwhile Pete has a similarly flamboyant batting style.
       
Name Andy Wood Name John Wood
Nickname Whoosh Nickname Woody
Role Right hand bat & occasional keeper Role Right Hand Bat & Keeper
Pen Portrait Andy has been one of the steadiest and most reliable batsmen in the club’s history with nearly 12,000 career runs. A run of carefully constructed not outs brought him to the top of the averages in 2001 and a deserved batting award. However, he has been the victim of more dodgy LBWs than Nasser Hussain, and can often be heard complaining that the club’s senior umpires are out to get him. Pen Portrait An excellent candidate for the club's greatest player of all time John continues to add to his 15,000+ career runs. Injury hinders him from adding to over 600 career wickets, but John's batting remains vital to the first XI. A no nonsense striker of the ball especially against quicker bowling John has been a consistent run getter for Cudham Wyse since he joined as a teenager. In addition he still regularly keeps wicket in impressive style either standing back or up to the bat.
