Some Famous People called Lindsay Wood
Lindsay Wood
Lindsay Wood (born 12 May 1961) was an English cricketer. He was a left-handed batsman and a left-arm slow bowler who played for Kent and Derbyshire.
Having played with the Kent Second XI team between 1979 and 1986, a seven-year tenure which ended after two showings in the 1986 County Championship, and numerous showings for the Second XI as a tailender, he moved to Derbyshire in time for the 1986 County Championship.
At Derbyshire, he was always to be the tenth man, followed solely by the tenacious defensive backstrokes of the Great Dane, teammate Ole Mortensen, while maintaining a slightly leakier bowling attack. He did not play first-class cricket again after the 1986 season.
