Michael Klinger

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Michael Klinger (born 1980) is a first-class cricketer in Victoria, Australia. He plays for St Kilda Cricket Club in Premier Cricket and is known as "Maxy".

Klinger began as an 18-year old youngster in the 1998/99 season. His carrer highlight was the 2000/01 season when he made a famous 99 not out, with captain Paul Reiffel declaring the innings closed, a move which brought great controversy.[citation needed] Following this Klinger had several less successful years, but returned to contention for a spot in the Victorian Bushrangers side for the 2005/06 season. He quickly made his first first-class cricket century, and then followed it up with his first List A one-day century.
