Seam bowler Chris Pringle went with friends to Headingley to watch a one day international between New Zealand and England - and found himself playing. New Zealand were already hit by injuries, with Danny Morrison and Jonathan Millmow out of action, so when Martin Snedden was taken ill on the morning of the match they lost no time in asking Pringle if he had brought his kit. In 1989 he had been breaking records for Stroud in the Western League and in 1990 had started in similar vein in the Bradford League. His emergency efforts got him a trip to Pakistan in 1990-91 and he made his debut in Karachi. In Faisalabad he took 7-52 and 4-100. His debut in New Zealand was against Sri Lanka in Wellington. In 1991-92 he took 3-127 against England in Christchurch. After a spell out of the Test side he returned against Pakistan in Christchurch in 1993-94, when he also played against India. He played at Lord's and Old Trafford on the 1994 tour of England, but only took three wickets in the series. On the South African tour of 1994-95 he played in the Tests at Durban and Cape Town. Against Sri Lanka at Dunedin in the same season he took 3-51. Pringle, medium fast with a somewhat uncoordinated action, made his first class debut for Auckland in 1989-90. In the only ODI on the 1994 tour of England he took 5-45. He also took 4-27 against Ireland in Comber. (Bob Harragan)
