Dermot Reeve 59 off 125 Balls 5 Fours on Test Debut vs NZ Ist Test at Christchurch, Jan 18-22 1992

 

In this video watch out batting of a forgotten England player Dermot Reeve. Who scored 59 off 125 Balls 5 Fours on Test Debut vs NZ Ist Test at Christchurch, in January 1992? He was best known as an unorthodox all-rounder played 29 One Day Internationals (ODI) for England. He also played English county cricket for Sussex, Warwickshire and Somerset.

Dermott Reeve loved to extemporize. He would reverse-sweep the spinners to interruption, go down on one knee to hoist the quicks over midwicket, and subtly vary the pace of his jobbing, limbs-pumping seamers. Dermott Reeve played in the 1992 World Cup final against Pakista at MCG. He also played in 1996 World Cup, playing (on the losing side) in the final in the former tournament. Though, he never scored highly in ODIs, and his batting average would have been significantly lower, but for his high proportion of not-out innings. Perhaps his most important international innings was a rapid 25 not out at the end of the England innings in the 1992 World Cup semi-final against South Africa, a match which England won narrowly and reached the final.

Although he was given just three Tests, all in New Zealand in 1991-92. His international career would have been longer if his ability to irk opponents hadn't extended to his team-mates. Reeve was born in Hong Kong in 1963 to parents who were working in the territory as teachers. His mother, Monica, later served as a scorer for a number of England Test matches.
