The big-hitter shares his memories of glory years in the colts and the odd dropped catch...

"I was lucky enough to play in the best Addiscombe Colts set-up that we've possibly ever had...we all progressed through to senior cricket and were well-looked after by senior members"
- Jamie Lippett

Name: Jamie Lippett

Nickname: J-Lo, Lippo

How would you describe yourself as a player? Slogger. Dodgy off-spinner. Terrible fielder.

Best cricket memory? Winning the Surrey U16 Cup for Addiscombe at Guildford back in the mid-90s and making my debut for Surrey schools.

Most embarrassing cricketing moment? One of the many hundreds of dropped catches that I managed to spill over the years!

Favourite player/cricket hero? Michael Slater and Ricky Ponting

Watch: Slater smash an incredible 100 v England and Ponting hit 200

Favourite format to watch? Test Match and Club Cricket

Best thing about Addiscombe CC? The people that I grew up with and played with. I was lucky enough to play in the best Addiscombe Colts set up that they’ve possibly ever had, with a bunch of my mates. We all progressed through to senior cricket at 1st or 2nd XI level and were well looked after by the senior members.
