My most surreal moment in cricketI was 19 and working my way through the grades and into 1st Grade at Northern District when returning from a tour to Pakistan with the Australian Under 19’s I was selected in the NSW Shield Squad to start training in the July. After playing against the likes of Salim Malik and Rameez Raja at stadiums in Karachi and Lahore of Pakistan and then a few months later to be included in the NSW Squad to start training with people like Doug Walters, Len Pascoe, Ian Davis, Peter Toohey and the like cricketers I’d watched on TV growing up and admired and now I’m rubbing shoulders with them it was something I’ll never forget. A far cry from my junior cricket days a few years earlier as a skinny kid playing for Gosford on the Central Coast.
