What would you say your role in a team typically is?
I am an opening batsman, who also keeps a little. I love bringing the energy and having fun with my mates. I'd look to keep morale high and hopefully we can celebrate winning together over a few pints!
What's your cricketing philosophy?
I like to keep my cricket pretty simple but I am very very competitive, so I hate losing but I love winning more. I pride myself on being hard to play against and I am a bit of a cricketing purist. So give me a red ball and some whites anyday.
What date do you arrive in the UK?
I'll be in the UK on the 13th April
What are you hoping to achieve individually and as a team this year?
Winning the league would be my biggest goal this year. From what I've heard we are in a really strong position as a club so hopefully I can contribute to winning a few games for Didsbury. Personally, I'm really keen to test my game in English conditions and hopefully get a few runs in the process.
What are you looking forward to for the upcoming summer?
I'm just really looking forward to experiencing an English summer. I'm excited to play a lot of cricket and meet some new people and hopefully have a lot of success with Didsbury! Also pretty keen to see what the Manchester circuit has to offer.
What do you already know about Manchester?
All I know is I don't like City or United. I don't know a lot about Manchester so I'm keen to get shown around. I'm also a very keen golfer, So I hope I can hit the links while I am there.
