Phil Lingard

RHB/RM Born: Colchester, 1981

Another ex-Colt who could one thinks could reasonably be expected to improve with greater concentration. On his day, an imposing batsman with a decent array of shots but, all-too-often, aerial impetuosity leads to his downfall when seemingly well set.

Possesses a ridiclously long run up for a someone whose pace that is only charitably descibed as gently medium. Very reliable fieldsman who is quick across the floor and once had a girlfriend.

Earns his living as a retail manager and spends his spare time on the motorways travelling to watch Everton.
