Who is Peter Worthington?

Peter Colin Worthington is an Australian cricketer.

An all-rounder, he attended the Australian Cricket Academy in 2003. He played in seven first-class cricket matches for the Western Warriors - one in 2002/03, five in 2003/04 and one in 2004/05. His best bowling of 6/59 - his only 5-wicket haul at senior level - came in Western Australia's first Pura Cup match of 2003/04. With three wickets in South Australia's first innings and 50 runs with the bat in a losing run chase, this was easily his best first-class performance, and the only occasion on which he was man of the match. His performances subsequently faded, and he fell out of contention for a place in the state side, but he hit 73 - his second first-class half-century, and his highest batting score at senior level - in his last first-class match, against New South Wales.

He continued to play one-day cricket and Twenty20 cricket for the Western Australia until 2006. In all, he played in 26 List A matches and five T20 matches. He made two List A half-centuries, in addition to two in first-class cricket.
