Profile

Graeme Cremer has chosen the hardest form of the game to master but his legspin has shown enough promise to get him into the Zimbabwe side at 18 years old, after just six first-class matches. But that probably has more to do with the exit of Paul Strang, Andy Whittall and Ray Price from the international scene than any thought that Cremer is the next wrist-spin genius. However, it still takes some guts for a youngster to stand-up at Test level and his debut series against Bangladesh provided a glimpse that he may have some talent. He claimed six wickets in the two Tests but his next experience, against South Africa, was a much sterner challenge and was viciously dealt with by Graeme Smith, AB de Villers and Jacques Kallis. He was on a hiding to nothing but such was the ferocity of the assault you felt for his state of mind. To his credit he claimed three wickets but he could suffer more painful figures in the future if Zimbabwe are given another chance. In 2006-07 he scored 171 in the Logan Cup but missed most of the season, and then blotted his copybook by failing to honour a contract to play in England.
