Richard Sladdin
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Richard Sladdin (born January 8, 1969) was an English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a left-arm slow bowler who played for Derbyshire and Somerset.
The most important spinner within the Derbyshire lineup in the early part of the 1990s, he debuted in a draw against Yorkshire in July 1991, as Derbyshire finished in third position in the season's table. A common fixture until the middle of the 1994 season, his career was quickly over, as he hit zero wickets for 190 runs, the single worst bowling figures in the history of Derbyshire County Cricket Club.
Prior to the end of his career, he played briefly in the 1997 season, for Somerset, though his career finished there. He hit five wickets in an innings twice in his career, including once in his sole first-class game for Somerset.
