25.01.2022 ***This weeks Player Profiles are sponsored by ODS Glass *** Name: Shaun Ryan Cunningham Nickname: Who the hell knows these days, its evolved over the last 20 years... Best batting performance: 81* in the 2s vs Parkdale Best bowling performance: Had to looks this one up, 4/28 and was unplayable with my offspin. With a career average of 15.73, one would say severely underbowled. The term goldenarm gets thrown around a bit. Cricketing highlight: Theres a couple that come to mind. The 3rds Grand Final Premiership in 09/10 Also a home and away game where I was captain in 16/17 and we had tough year with a young team. We managed to win outright chasing 112 off the last 19 overs on Oval 2 vs Port Melbourne Leading all time catcher at the club fair achievement for a man who struggles to bend down when keeping. Whats the secret to the success? Just relax and let the ball come to you. Every season we start out with a refreshed Cunners claiming this is the year to get back in the 1s. Will 2020-21 be the year you leapfrog Akilla Lakshan? Thats been over a decade now, fitness is of a concern and plenty of good keeping options these days but watch this space How would you describe yourself as a cricketer: Relaxed but focused on game day. Play to win. In 3 words sum up what bonbeach means to you: Friends, Memories & Beers Favourite cricketer ever played with? Corey Martin and Jason Lowe. Just the general chit chat pregame and on field, a lot of which I cant repeat here. The antics of both makes for wonderful viewing every week. Favourite drink in the Bonbeach fridges? Furphy Favourite local coffee shop? I dont drink Coffee Favourite spot for a drink? Back in the day The Edgy & Daveys, but these days Club Retro (I love that place).
