| John Gardner |
Biography
John made his debut in 1985 as a junior and played most of the first ten years in the 2XI. He left in 1994 to play for Corbridge for 1 season, returning in 1995 to the 1XI, and has been a first choice ever since. In 2000 was the League's leading outfielder. The 2002 season saw John shoulder the burden of the bowling attack in the first half of the season following injury to Duncan McGregor, a shortage of bowlers at the Club saw John bowling 25 overs every week. In 2005 he became the first player from the Ponteland side to score a Century in the President's XI fixture. Scored a 21 ball fifty in the win over Ashington at Home in 2006 an innings containing 6 sixes, then two weeks later scored fifties off 23 and 24 balls against Lanchester and Leadgate.
Took 5-5 off 10.2 overs when Greenside were dismissed for a league record low of 14 in 2007, the 4th most economic spell for the 1XI |
