As it was, he played in just three county matches and showed what Hampshire were missing when he helped them to a 145-run victory over Leicestershire with a score of 140 (24 fours) in under three hours. Hampshire certainly had cause to regret not having him as a regular, slumping to 12th in the Championship. Own Team O M R W Opp Ct St Total Total 54.
