Paul Newman (cricketer)

Paul Newman (born January 10, 1959) was an English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-fast bowler. He was born in Evington, and played for Derbyshire between 1980 and 1989.

Newman's cricketing career started in the 1976 Second XI season, playing with the Leicestershire second XI, where he played until the end of the 1979 season. He was soon to be spotted by Derbyshire, who picked him up and handed him a debut towards the end of the 1980 season.

Derbyshire finished a distant ninth at the end of the 1980 season, and next season, played in a draw against the touring Australians. Newman continued playing for Derbyshire throughout nine years of mid-table finishes, playing his penultimate match in 1989 against Gloucestershire. He played in one match for the Minor Counties cricket team against a team of South Africans before drawing his career to a close.

Newman's highest first-class score was an innings of 115, the only century of his career, against Leicestershire in 1985. Generally he was used as a lower-order batsman. Newman's best bowling figures were 8-29 against Yorkshire.
