O'Brien Calls it a Day

Former Middlesex, Wellington and New Zealand fast bowler, Iain O'Brien has decided to call it a day at the age of 35 after attempts to return to New Zealand cricket's domestic and international arena were curtailed by  persistent back injuries.

O'Brien wasn't one of our fastest or most talented fast bowlers but his dedication to the cause was faultless. His move to Middlesex is a testament to the professionalism of the man. O'Brien's first-class cricket career may be over but he will continue to feature for his club, Petone-Riverside.

 
Anyway, in true form, O'Brien is raising funds for the Starship Foundation by auctioning his Middlesex cricket top and cap.
