Duncan Elsey                Dunc                Slam Dunc                Bhuna.                Born 23rd April 1962.
Duncan, Duncan, Duncan. I'm sat here
wondering how and what to write about
Duncan. He's a Whitehall institution. He's got the
biggest cricket bag ever made, he's got more kit
than anybody could possibly need. 9 bats in
various stages of dilapidation, 58 caps of various
designs and different logos, its rumoured he carries
his beloved skis in there two. I think I've even
heard a cry from a small Filipino boy on many
occasion. Watching Dunc delve into his bag is like
watching Mary Poppins pull out all her pariphialia.
Duncan has many a tale to tell, his six at
Arthington when we were playing Hawksworth is
probably his favourite, although the time he got a
five against Baildon is probably a close second.
Duncan is an important part of the team make up,
if anyone knows why please feel free to let me
know. His best fielding position is slip, and when he
takes a catch its usually spectacular (he's either
juggled it for 10 minutes or fallen over after he's
caught it.).

Would you believe Duncan has only been out
once in the last 3 seasons? I think this stat proves
beyond doubt, that stats can prove anything if
you want them to.

Another surprise is that he took 3 catches last
season. Wow what a player.

Duncan - The Bhuna.
