- Damir Alidzanovic
Right-arm medium bowler. Capable of producing devastatingly unplayable bounce and swing, or 12-ball overs. Elegant stance.
Favourite shot: playing and missing. - Urban Blaznik
Right-arm medium bowler. Effective if ungainly bowler who always seems to get among the wickets. Big throw from the boundary.
Favourite shot: front foot drive, whatever the delivery. - Greg Davies
Wicket-keeper and batsman. Graceful, athletic cricketer admired and respected by his team-mates (in his dreams).
Favourite shot: 9 iron hoik across the line. - Brad Eve
Right-arm fast bowler. Very mean ñ always targets one of the opposition as "mine". And usually gets him. Accomplished dispatcher of Fray Bentos bowling.
Favourite shot: graceful pirouette to hook a six (or get bowled on leg stump). - Steve Fish
Right-arm medium bowler. Always bowls a couple of good deliveries in every match. Excellent fielder with safe hands, though usually chooses to catch one-handed.
Favourite shot: premeditated dance down the wicket. - Scott Geldart
Opening batsman and slow-medium right-arm bowler. Combative, well-rounded cricketer and accomplished sledger. Builds his innings cautiously.
Favourite shot: late cut. - Daniel Herakovic
Recently converted to cricket from ice hockey. Determined to hold onto a catch, one day.
Favourite shot: wahay! - Mark Oman
Fast bowler. Highly competitive Australian Slovene. Likes to soften up the opposing batsmen. Very tough to dislodge from the crease.
Favourite shot: forward defensive prod, no run. - Dan Ryan
Left-arm medium quickie. Complains, with some justification, of being the most "dropped" bowler in Slovenia. Big-swinging, big-hitting batsman who scores quickly if he can stay at the crease.
Favourite shot: full toss lobbed straight to nearest fielder. - Joel Smith
Off-spinner. Accurate slow bowler and good close fielder. A reluctant but sometimes effective cricketer.
Favourite shot: prefers not to bat. - Paul Townend
Batsman. Stylish late-order batsman, despite his Yorkshire origins. Occasionally allowed to bowl.
Favourite shot: straight drive.
- Damir Alidzanovic
