Specialisms: Quick bowling, elegant batting (an unlikely combination for Mallards but he’s new so give it time)
Profile: Mallards token overseas star recruited at no expense whatsoever from New Zealand via Riding Mill. Dave is unusual in that he can bat, bowl and field with distinction so we have made him joint vice captain to try and stop him from leaving. If that doesn’t work we’ll tell Pete Nitsch where he lives.
