Profile

Jon started playing cricket at the age of 8, he has participated in the U19 World Cup as well as Nuffield & SA Schools. He also represented Natal U18 in cricket and hockey for two consecutive years. He would like very much to play for his province and the national team and finds Shaun Pollock & Mark Waugh an excellent pair of cricketers to look up to. Jon feels he should spend more time reading when he's not playing cricket but seems to spend this time playing golf and watching movies
July 1998.
