New 4s Skipper answers the all-important cricketing questions...

Name: Vinay Malhotra

Nickname: Vin Diesel

Club Role: 4th XI Captain, Committee Member, Colts Assistant Manager/scorer

Type of player: All-rounder - I bowl right arm medium pace and my batting is hmmmm...unorthodox...how much so depends on the situation!

How long have you played at Addiscombe? Since June 2018. I supported Ritchie Stace in his management of the colts side my son has played in and then I got lured out of retirement in 2017 after having not played for 27 years!

Best cricketing memory The 4s match against Wimbledon in 2018 which we won. (editor: Vinay got 3-22 with the ball and then 23* as ACC won the match in the last over with one wicket left - read the match report here)

What is your most embarrassing moment on a cricket pitch? Dropping the catch off my son Nikhil's bowling.....twice in the same match!!!!

If you could be any player, past or present, who would it be? Kapil Dev, the great Indian All rounder (see some classic Kapil action here)

Favourite format to watch: ODI

Predictions for ACC's 2020 season: We are the club to watch out for!

Why is ACC a great club to join? Friendly, always supporting young players and embracing the new digital era!
