More on Dominic Cork
Description from Wikipedia:
Dominic Gerald Cork (born 7 August 1971 in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire) is an English cricketer who bowls swing and seam, as well as an occasionally useful batsman. On Thursday 2 October 2008 he joined Hampshire after signing a 2 year deal with The Hawks.
Cork made his first-class debut with Derbyshire against the touring New Zealanders in 1990, and was a regular member of the county side the following year, gaining attention by taking 8-53 against a strong Essex side. He went to the West Indies with the A team in the winter, and made his One Day International debut in 1992.
Despite playing a handful more ODIs, in general the following few seasons were somewhat less successful for Cork – though he did score his first century in 1993 – but in 1995 he rediscovered his form, taking 90 wickets including a career-best 9-43 against Northants and being called up by England to face the West Indians at Lord's. Cork took 7-43 in the second innings, the best figures by an Englishman on debut, to help England level the series. He finished the series with 26 wickets and included the 22nd hat-trick in test cricket claiming the wickets of Richie Richardson, Junior Murray and Carl Hooper. After a productive time in South Africa that winter and a full part in England's World Cup, Cork looked to have made his place secure. He was made a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1996.
