About Alex Glegg
- Alexander Kenneth Lindsay "Alex" Glegg (born 9 August 1971) is a Canadian former cricketer.
- He represented the Canadian national side in several competitions during the 1990s. Born in Rhodesia (present-day Zimbabwe), Glegg made his List A debut for Canada in October 1996, during the 1996–97 Shell/Sandals Trophy (the West Indian domestic one-day competition).
- The tournament featured teams outside the scope of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) for the first time, with Canada and Bermuda participating as invitational teams.
- Glegg, a right-handed wicket-keeper, featured in the last four of Canada's six games, missing out on the first two matches (against Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago).
- However, he was only wicket-keeper for the final match, against the Leeward Islands, with Shiv Seeram instead used as the team's primary keeper.
- Glegg opened the batting in every match he played, with his opening partners including Latchman Bhansingh (one game), the team's captain Ingleton Liburd (two games), and Brian Rajadurai (one game).
- His best performance came against Trinidad and Tobago, when he scored 37 before being bowled by West Indies international Phil Simmons.
- Against Jamaica, he and Liburd put on a 69-run opening stand, while on debut against the Leeward Islands he was the only Canadian top-order batsman to pass double figures, with the side bowled out for 74.Glegg's next appearances for Canada came at the 1997 ICC Trophy, played in Malaysia in March and April.
- With Danny Ramnarais preferred as wicket-keeper, he played in only two matches, against East and Central Africa in the group stages and against Hong Kong in the seventh-place playoff.
- Glegg's batting performances (opening with Latchman Bhasingh and Desmond Chumney) were lacklustre, but he recorded three dismissals in each game, with three stumpings effected (off three different bowlers).
- One of the batsmen he stumped was Hong Kong's Rahul Sharma, an ex-Ranji Trophy and future ODI player.
- Glegg's last recorded matches for Canada came in October 1997, at the 1997–98 Red Stripe Bowl (the renamed Shell/Sandals Trophy).
- Featuring in all four of Canada's matches, he twice recorded ducks, against Guyana and the Leeward Islands.
- However, against Guyana in the quarter-final (in what was to be his last list-A match), he scored 47 runs coming in fifth in the batting order, his highest list-A score.
- This included a 105-run fourth-wicket partnership with Paul Prashad.
- Canada's wicket-keeper at its next international tournament, the 1998 Commonwealth Games, was Danny Ramnrais.
- Glegg remained involved in Canadian cricket after finishing his playing career, as evidenced by his role as match referee at a 2006 international fixture between the Bermudian and Canadian women's national sides, played in Victoria, British Columbia.
- His club cricket was played for the Meraloma Cricket Club, based in Vancouver.
