10 questions with….

 

1. Name – Christopher Philip McKeown
   
   
2. Nickname - Unfortunatley nothing to the standard of Paul "Geary" Geary, so usually, and quite originally, 'Mac' or 'Macca'. The rumour is though that the other third teams in the league refer to me as 'The White Sobers'.
   
   
3. Batting Style – It can vary depending on what the situation requires. The fact that everytime I've batted the situation has required me to try hit everything through midwicket is uncanny.
   
   
4. Bowling Style – Deceptive
   
   
5. Best/Worst trainer at club – Training for club players is only done by idiots, so the best trainers are those that do not train as they have realised the waste of time that it is and the worst are those who spend time training whilst everyone else just laughs at their foolishness.
   
   
6. Favourite ground to play at – Sydney Cricket Ground
   
   
7. Best player played with/against – With: Zac Feather. Against: I'd say Martyn Evans but I've only ever bowled one ball at him before waving him off the field so I'll go with Joe Dilnot.
   
   
8. Most memorable match – 3rd team cup quarter final for Wallasey at Southport. They needed 2 to win off the last ball and hit it straight down my throat at mid-off, I managed to drop it and allow them to run the two in the process. More importantly it was the game when Dibble shit himself when fielding.
   
   
9. Funniest moment on a cricket pitch – If not Dibs shitting himself it would have to be a friendly game at the Oval. Richard Alsop ran in to bowl and as he went to bowl the ball slipped out of his hand and landed at cover point. The batsman, as is his right to do, ran over to twat it and as he was in his backlift Bob Hughes, oblivious of the fact he was allowed to hit it, rugby tackled the batsman leaving him flat out.
   
   
10. Funniest moment in clubhouse – K Johnstone losing the plot after Sango referring to his team as the 4's.
