Andrew Gokel has been playing and involved with Shires Cricket in Sydney since 1980.

He’s won numerous premierships, is a student of the game and loves the camaraderie you get from spending so much time with your team mates.

Who has been the best three spinners you have played against?

Pete Daly from Lindfield was a left arm orthodox with great control and variation who spun it and had a lots of ways of getting you out.

Tom Wood from Auburn bowled fizzing leggies and went through us in a semi at Monty Bennet once

Graeme Beard from Roseville was tough, as you would expect a former test player to be. He didn’t appreciate the shorter boundaries at Monty Bennet though.
