Roger Douglas Hudson (born 8 June 1967) is an English former
Oxford University
.
Hudson made his
half century high score of 62.[2]
Hudson never took a wicket, despite bowling forty one overs, though is very capable of talking up some near misses.
In 1999, Hudson played the only
catch.[4]
On this occasion the captain wisely never handed him the ball.
Hudson moved to Australia in 2001 and, perhaps fearing his cricketing powers had peaked, took up golf. Known best for long (occasionally wild) drives combined with spectacular recovery shots, Hudson relentlessly pursues his goal of a scratch handicap. His progress is meticulously monitored through a series of excel sheets, indeed there is very little in life Hudson cannot put into a spreadsheet, though perhaps his goal will shortly be changed to “shooting less than his age”.
