Who is Vince Clarke?
Vincent Paul Clarke is a former English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm leg-break bowler who played for Somerset, Leicestershire and Derbyshire during a five-year first-class career.
Clarke first played for Somerset during the 1993 Second XI Championship season, making a tenacious debut against Derbyshire batting somewhat down the order. He moved to Leicestershire for a short stint in 1995, and to Derbyshire in 1997.
The 1997 season saw Derbyshire finish way down the Championship table, and Clarke was beginning to appear less and less for the first team. He continued to appear for the second team throughout 1998, but only made one appearance in 1999 before hanging up his gloves.
Clarke was a middle-order batsman and an occasional bowler, with a top score of 99. Once renowned for his flippers and googlies, Clarke relied less on his bowling as his career went on.
Clarke is also father to three children and married to his wife who is a primary school education assistant.
