About Paul Grunill

Paul Grunill Paul Grunill | 10:34 UK time, Friday, 16 May 2008

A love of cricket was instilled in me early in life during numerous garden games with my father and grandfather and I later became 1st XI captain at my senior school, an honour which owed less to my talent than it did to a lack of obvious alternatives.

My proudest moment was leading the team to victory in the end of year Pupils v Masters game, having put 10 fielders within five yards of the bat as their number 11 took strike (he swiped, missed and was bowled) and I once took seven wickets in a house match by yelling appeals would have been proud of into the face of a teacher who didn't understand .

Outside of school, I played for at village cricket level for several years am proud to boast that I was the most dilligent boring batsman in our league, having once occupied the crease for the entire 48 overs of an innings and only reached 50 in the last one.

I have worked for the ´óÏó´«Ã½ for almost 20 years and was proud to be cricket editor of this website from 2000 to 2007.
