A bustling, brisk seam bowler, Gareth Berg learned his cricket in South Africa, playing a handful of one-day games for Western Province B, before moving to live in England. In 2004 he played for Northamptonshire Second XI without breaking into the first team, and in 2007 was signed by Middlesex, again turning out for the Second XI. In the 2008 pre-season he took five wickets against England Under-19 on his home ground at Radlett, gaining him his first-team debut. His game has developed with age and in 2011 his allround ability helped Middlesex win promotion as averaged 41.87 with the bat and 19.96 with the ball. Despite his ancestry, he is not a Kolpak player because of his long-term residency in England.
