Who the hell is... Tungy?


Full Name: Alex Tomahawk Tsung

Age: Yooooouth

Origin of Name: From the ancient Chinese meaning 'He of the run-out'

Aliases: Al, Tungy

Occupation(s): Apprentice screwdriver holder

Location: Chase Terrace

Batting Style: Flamboyant

Personal Website: Tungy

JW from Worcestershire says: Alex bats very much as if he were a sparkler at a fireworks show. He looks good, but doesn't last long. A constant no-baller by the small margin of around a nine-feet overstep, young Alex is yet to make his mark as a bowler - you could say that he's yet to make a delivery.
