Profile

Alex Gidman is a functional middle-order batsman that briefly flirted with higher honours. After establishing himself in the Gloucestershire four-day team in 2003 he was picked as captain for the England A tour of Malaysia and India that winter. A hand injury forced him to withdraw. He did make the tour to Sri Lanka the following winter but failed to make any impression and since his future has been confined to county cricket.
