Alastair Bressington is one of a number of young, Bristol-born players on the fringes of the first team, and made the most progress in 2001. The 22-year-old played five CricInfo Championhip matches, though he would likely concede that this had much to do with the injury situation at the club. He performed steadily throughout the season, bowling his seamers tightly and with purpose. He possesses no real pace, but bowled economically.
