Ross Ormiston
The only "genuine" cricketer in this side "Ormo" had many years playing
first class cricket for Wellington.
His sophisticated, cultured approach to batting sneaks up on you leaving
you wondering where all the runs came from. Bowling is a mixture of
dinkers, sliders, dribblers top spinners and the odd straight ball.
Captain of the Divine Felons.
Rob Stevens
A Criminal Barrister by trade, Rob is not afraid of playing the roles of
judge and jury as well when the umpire shows he's not up to it.
Brought up in the "rottweiler-pit bull cross" school of batting he is yet
another promising schoolboy cricketer in the Divine Felon's squad who
failed somewhat to live up to the future that their mother's had mapped
out for him.
He is also a keeper that'll "smother" anything coming his way (and catch the odd one as well).
Jonathan Pereira
No one else in this competition can boast a lawyer trained in a catholic
seminary. "JP" is the inspirational force behind the Divine Felons.
He'll tear off runs when you least expect it. A quick scorer the only
thing that'll slow him down is having to make an ethical decision whether
to walk or not. The lawyer in him normally wins.
JP will bowl if the rest of the team comes down with a mystery illness
that eliminates any shoulder rotation movement and will keep wicket when
he can get his hands on the gloves before Rob does.
Peter Sainsbury (Strawbs)
The seasoned campaigner in the Felons line up, Pete offers up sage advice
to the youngsters that he has simply no intention whatsoever of following
himself.
A star fielder who specialises in one handed grabs he's also a batsmen who
leads from the front and prefers to "flay" it rather than "stroke" it.
Always bats with a helmet advertising his Dentist sponsor.
Peter Woods
Dont be fooled by the languid gait and gentle leftarmers. Beneath lies a highly competitive character not only on the field but in his knowledge of sports history. He is sure to give the local masseuses a run for their money
Peter Watson
The youngest member who, apart from getting our average age down to a respectable level, is a talented left handed batsman, bowler of licorice allsorts and brilliant fielder. Guaranteed to test out the local eateries and whatever else.
