First Foreign player in county
cricket, Craig McDermott.
As per the wishes of captain Martyn Moxon, Australian fast
bowler Craig McDermott was their original choice as foreign
player until, just one month before his scheduled debut on
Good Friday, he pulled out of the deal citing a groin injury.

He named his daughter Sara, which
