Charles Anthony "Tony" Reid (born 9 April 1962) is a Barbados-born American former cricketer. [1] A right-handed batsman and right-arm medium pace bowler, [2] he played for the United States national cricket team from 2000 until 2005. [3] He was the first man to take a wicket for the US in a One Day International (ODI). [4]

Biography

Born in Barbados in 1962, [2] Reid made his List A debut when the USA took part in the 2000–01 Red Stripe Bowl, playing three of the team's four group matches in Jamaica. His debut against the Jamaicans [5] was inauspicious as he went for 50 from his ten overs and was lbw to Laurie Williams for a duck. [6]

He did not play in the match against Canada, but was back in the side against his native Barbados, [5] taking his first senior wicket - that of West Indies Test batsman Adrian Griffith. [7] He was retained against Trinidad & Tobago, [2] but failed to make any impression as the USA were bowled out for a paltry 62, which their opponents rushed past for the loss of one wicket in 31 balls. [8]

His next appearances were in early 2004, at the ICC 6 Nations Challenge tournament in Sharjah and Dubai [5] which the United States eventually won on net run rate. [9] In the first match, against Namibia, he took 3-40 and scored 30 in a five-wicket win, as well as running out the Namibian captain, Deon Kotze. [10] Later in the competition he scored 55 in a losing cause against the Netherlands. [11]

Shortly after the end of the Six Nations competition, Reid made his first-class debut at the 2004 ICC Intercontinental Cup against Canada in Fort Lauderdale. [12] He scored only 4 and 2 as the USA lost by 104 runs, but took 2–10 in six tight overs in the Canadian second innings. [13] Five games followed at the Americas Championship, a tournament he previously played in 2000, [14] before another Intercontinental Cup appearance, this time in a winning cause against Bermuda. [15]

In September 2004, the USA played the first ODIs in their history, in the 2004 ICC Champions Trophy in England. [16] Reid had been caught up in Hurricane Frances, and at one stage had looked unlikely to make it across the Atlantic, [17] but he was rewarded for his perseverance when, opening the bowling in the first game against New Zealand, he had captain Stephen Fleming caught at cover. [4]

This was the first wicket in ODI history for the United States, [4] although they were brought back down to earth by a thumping 210-run defeat, followed by a nine-wicket thrashing by the Australians. [18]

Reid last played for the US in the 2005 ICC Trophy [3] in Ireland, [5] but despite two half centuries his bowling was ineffective, and he took just one wicket from 42 overs [2] in a disastrous competition for the Americans which saw them lose all four of their group games (one more was abandoned), thus denying the USA a place at the 2007 World Cup. [19] He hit 54 against Denmark, [20] but his best of 61 not out [2] came in a ninth-place play-off match which saw the United States beaten by Oman. [21]
