Robin Weston

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robin Michael Swann Weston (born 7 June 1975) was an English cricketer who played for Durham, Derbyshire, and Middlesex.

Weston was the son of Mike Weston who played for Durham in 1972. His first-class career started with a two-year stint at Durham where he had played since his Second XI Championship debut in May 1992. With three youth Tests under his belt before his nineteenth birthday, Weston joined the Durham first team in 1995, where he played for two years.

Weston made his debut for Derbyshire in July 1998 against the South Africans and then against Northamptonshire, where he hit a half-century despite an innings defeat. He left Derbyshire at the end of 1999 to join Middlesex.

After a shaky first year with Middlesex, Weston made a comeback in 2001, as he made three centuries and finished the season with an average in the 40s. He helped the team in 2002 towards Championship glory. After the 2003 season, Weston abandoned first class cricket. He was a right-handed batsman and right-arm leg-break bowler.

Weston's brother Philip had a somewhat longer career playing for Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.
