MEET THE WORLD CRICKET WATCH TEAM…
David Siddall, Editor
The opening batsman that England never wanted. Despite rejection from the England camp, his passion for cricket has never waned. Never forgets being called a pommie c bomb on his first ever night out in Australia.
Blaise Murphet, (the Daniel Vettori of WCW)Formally known as Mike Whitney. He played a handful of tests and one-dayer’s for Australia. He then went on to host the hit TV series ‘Who Dares Wins’. Since then he has moved on to greener pastures, including contributing to this site.
David Green, columnist (the Gideon Haigh of WCW)David’s never realised his dream of captaining his country in an Ashes series Down Under. He’s now trying to convert the french to cricket (with little success to date!). His blog: The Reverse Sweep
Raf Copeland, Contributing Editor – Production
Tim Mathias, writer, researcherWith an English mother and Indian father, Tim Mathias’ allegiance is split. He continues to research on the evolution of Indian cricket, from ‘Cultural Supremacy to Cricketing Swadeshi’.

Salva
Stuart Coull
Stuart grew up in Scotland and is testament that Scotland can play cricket, he opens the bowling right arm pretty f#$king quick and is a lower order batsman that gives it some serious tap. He plays for the greatest team in Scotland the Murrayfield Dafs in Edinburgh, if you wanna play cricket in Scotland check out their website.
FAVOURITE PLAYERS: Shane Warne, Ricky Ponting, Mike Atherton.
Jeremy Loadman
Like the rest of the World Cricket Watch team this chap has limited cricketing ability but bowls a straight-break to match anything Cameron White can dish up. While he grudgingly admits that the Aussies selectors, on occasion, do get the odd decision right, overall he thinks that their combined cricketing nous is the intellectual equivalent of Dougie Bollinger’s new hair do.
Rob Marrs
Rob is a 27 year old blogger based in Edinburgh. A football and cricket obsessive, he has the distinction of being possibly the only man to score a hat-trick for the Northen Hemisphere in a game of football*. He currently plays for Teuchters FC and Teuchters CC which means, in egotistical moments, he thinks of himself as a latter day Denis Compton.
He harbours ambitions of changing his nationality so as to get an international sporting cap. His own blog Left Back In The Changing Room veers between the geeky, the dorky and the nerdy and, on a good day, manages to be all three.
Away from sport, he enjoys reading, napping, and debating – in fact, he will never tire of hearing the sound of his own voice.
* At the World Universities Debating Championships, 2003, the Northern Hemisphere beat the Southern Hemisphere in a 6-2 thriller.
