The paceman's positive predictions for 2020

'I would describe myself as a seamer and the best No10 in the club'
- Charlie Forden

Name: Charlie Forden, opening bowler for 1st XI

Nickname: don’t really have one but Starnsey called me 'Cheese Strings' after injuring a hamstring after the first game of the season last year...

Describe yourself as a player: Seamer. And the best number 10 in the club.

Best cricket memory: taking 8-17 in derby game which included both a hat-trick and a 4 wicket maiden.. those were the days...

Most embarrassing moment: Once I ran 20 yards, took a spectacular diving catch and celebrated it wildly...I wondered why no one else was celebrating...then I realised it was a free hit...

Favourite player/ hero: I love watching Dale Steyn bowl

Favourite Format: Can’t beat a Test Match

Most looking forward to in this season:
Turning up in July, first game of the season, 30 degrees, losing the toss and bowling first on a ‘road’, 10 overs for 60 runs no wickets. Bring on the season!
