Scott Alexander Newman (born 3 November 1979) is an English former professional cricketer who played first-class cricket between 2002 and 2009.
Newman was born at Epsom in Surrey and educated at Trinity School of John Whitgift in Croydon,Coulsdon College and Brighton University. [1]
An opening batsman,his first-class debut for Surrey against Hampshire in 2002 was sealed with an innings of 99,followed by an innings of 183 in the next match against Leicestershire. He was selected in 2003/04 to attend the ECB national academy and toured subsequently to India]
In May 2005,he made history as the first Surrey player to hit consecutive innings of a century and a double century in the same game,against Glamorgan. [2]
In 2009,he was dropped from the Surrey squad mid-way through the season and spent time on loan at Nottinghamshire before formally leaving Surrey at the end of the season to join traditional rivals Middlesex. [3] There were reports that Newman's departure from Surrey was influenced by management's disappointment with his attitude on and off the pitch. [4] This followed an altercation with the umpires in a match against Middlesex earlier that season. [5] His stint with Nottinghamshire was also marked by a dispute with the umpires during a first-class match. [6]
On 12 March 2012 Newman joined Kent on loan for the first two months of the season. He played four matches for Kent with his highest score being 89 against Oxford MCCU. [7]
In 2017 he set up the Scott Newman Academy to coach junior players,following brief spells running cricket coaching programmes in North Middlesex and West Hertfordshire.
The County Championship is the domestic first-class cricket competition in England and Wales and is organised by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). It became an official title in 1890. The competition consists of eighteen clubs named after,and representing historic counties,seventeen from England and one from Wales.
Surrey County Cricket Club in 2005 are playing their cricket in the First Division of the County Championship and the Second Division of the totesport League. The 2004 season was a disappointment for Surrey under the captaincy of Jonathan Batty,who was replaced by Mark Butcher for 2005. However,Butcher was out for most of the season due to an injury to his left wrist,leaving Mark Ramprakash as interim captain –one of the few,maybe the only,man to captain both Surrey and their arch-rivals Middlesex.
John Crossland was an English professional cricketer who played first-class cricket between 1878 and 1887. Crossland was recognised as one of the fastest bowlers in county cricket,but critics generally believed that he threw,rather than bowled the ball,a practice illegal in cricket. Contemporaries suggest that,but for the suspicions over his bowling action,Crossland would have played Test cricket for England.
Paul Raymond Pollard is an English cricket umpire and former first-class cricketer. As a player,he was an opening batsman who played over 300 games in first-class and List A cricket for Nottinghamshire before a shorter stay with Worcestershire. After retiring from top-line county cricket in 2002,he had one season with Lincolnshire and appeared twice for them in List A matches. His medium-pace bowling was of the occasional variety,and with it he captured four first-class wickets. He has also coached,including in Zimbabwe.
William Robert Simon Gidman is an English former professional cricketer who most recently played for Kent County Cricket Club as an all-rounder. He previously played county cricket for Durham,Gloucestershire and Nottinghamshire and spent a period on loan at Kent towards the end of the 2016 season before joining the club permanently in October 2016.

This was the first time that any English county had competed in an overseas domestic competition. The invitation to take part in the tournament was largely due to the influence of former West Indian captain Jimmy Adams who had been Kent's Head Coach until September 2016.
