Getting Wick With... Adam Selves

"Selvesy in preparation for his Best Wick Moment"

Committee member Selvsey is currently hors de combat owing to his other half producing a new Self. But what lies behind his obdurate batting and opposition tormenting slowies?

1. Nickname: Selvesy, (or Brittle Fat Head in the good old days - always injured when playing rugby)
2 Highest Score for HWRCC: 30 not out vs Old Wimbledonies (down as unsure on play cricket - as if the site itself could not believe it)
3 Best Bowling for HWRCC: 6-37 vs Esher
4 Favourite Away Ground: Streatham & Marlborough
5 Favourite Food: Iberico Ham
6 Favourite Singer/Band: The Verve

14 Best Wick Moment: Being carried home by Chedwood after cheese and wine night.
15 Worst Wick Moment: Breaking my wrist dropping a catch off my own bowling in my first game (trials match 2009) then not saying anything and playing on as not wanting to look soft at a new club. Missed the whole season as the wrist set out of place while having a good night out in Barcadia.
16 Invite 3 People to Dinner (Dead or Alive): Hemingway, Ballard and Dickens (all loved the sauce).
