Who is Arno Jacobs?
Arno Jacobs is a South African first class cricketer for the Warriors. A left-handed batsman, he has made over 4000 first class runs and has a highest score of 197. He is of no relation to South African domestic cricketer Davey Jacobs.
The 30 year old, who can bowl right arm off-break and right arm medium, has a first class average of 38.04 with the bat and an average of 125 with the ball.
In his career he has played for Scotland, Eastern Province, North West, Warriors, Western Transvaal, Middleton C.C. and Leicestershire C.C.C.
Controversy arose in the 2007 season when playing as the professional for Middleton in the Central Lancashire League, he was allowed to play for Scotland in the Friends Provident Trophy. Impressed by his form, Leicestershire C.C.C. approached both Middleton C.C. and Scotland Cricket for them to release him from his contracts and to allow Arno to play for Leicestershire full-time. Scotland Cricket released a statement that they were the ones who released him from the contract allowing him to play for Leicestershire, when in fact it was Middleton C.C. who had released him.
