Huw Thomas Waters (born 26 September 1986) is a former Welsh cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm fast-medium-pace bowler,who played for Glamorgan.
He attended the Sixth Form at Monmouth School,and was ever-present in the School 1st XI cricket team,before making his debut for Glamorgan in 2005.
He was named in the England Under-19s' tour of Bangladesh,but had to withdraw his place because of an injury to his wrist. He was subsequently able to return to the squad,thanks to the subsequent withdrawal of Richard Jones from the team.
Waters went to Australia for the best part of six months playing his professional sport there.
In 2012,he topped the first-class batting averages for Glamorgan,with a batting average of 53.00. This was mainly because Waters was not out 12 times out of 14 innings.
Glamorgan and England had high hopes for the man dubbed "The next Simon Jones" for his ability to reverse swing the ball at good pace,but Waters' potential was not realised,as he was forced to retire in August 2014 due to exercise-induced dystonia.

Glamorgan County Cricket Club started their 2005 season as defending totesport League champions, but the 2005 season ended without a trophy – instead, they suffered relegation in the first class form. They played their first-class cricket in the First Division of the County Championship. They started the Championship season at 25–1 to win, and favourites to be relegated – which they eventually were, winning one of sixteen games in the Championship season to finish bottom – nearly 100 points behind the first team to avoid relegation. By the end of August, they had confirmed relegation with three games remaining. In the National League, they hovered around mid-table for most of the season, before a run of three unbeaten games at the end of August sent them out of the relegation zone, and they finished the season in fourth place. In the C&G Trophy, they were knocked out at the second round stage by eventual champions Hampshire, while the Twenty20 campaign saw them finish bottom of their group with two wins from eight matches.
Andrew Gordon Ganteaume was a Trinidadian cricketer who played one Test match for the West Indies in 1948 as a batsman.

Ganteaume played for Trinidad from a young age and was chosen to play in a Test match against England following his good batting form in 1948. However, his slow scoring probably cost him his place and he never played another Test, although he toured England with the West Indies in 1957. At the time of his death, Ganteaume was the oldest surviving West Indies Test cricketer.
