Who is Paul Hutchison?

Paul Michael Hutchison is an English first-class cricketer. He is a left-handed batsman, and a left-arm medium-fast bowler.

Hutchison played for the Under-17 and Under-19 England team. On Hutchison's first-class debut for Yorkshire County Cricket Club in 1997, he took 7 for 38, followed by a County Championship debut tally of 7 for 50, recording the best Yorkshire debut bowling return since Wilfred Rhodes in 1898. He went on to play thirty nine first-class matches for Yorkshire between 1996 and 2001, taking 143 wickets at 22.68, before being released by the county.

He joined Sussex in 2002, but, beset by injury, he only stayed two years before moving to Middlesex. However, he only made two first-class appearances in 2005. His most recent non first-class appearance was at Lord's in June 2007, when he took 2 for 35 for the MCC against a European XI.
