Andrew Pratt was a wicketkeeper-batsman who never cemented a regular place in the Durham side, making 62 appearances in an eight-year stay with the county. There was no doubting his ability behind the stumps - Jack Russell rated him as one of the best in the country - but he was unfortunate enough to play in an era where runs were equally important for any aspiring keeper. His best year was 2004 when he scored 618 runs in 16 outings, but he struggled in 2005 and was released before the season was out.
