Adam Riley shines on Club Cricket Conference tour of West Indies
Saturday 21st November 2015
Adam Riley continued his fine late-season form on the Club Cricket Conference tour of the West Indies.
The Sidcup-born spinner enjoyed a fortnight in the Caribbean with some warm-weather training and match practice in a variety of conditions.
He began the tour in style with 4/17 in a win against St David’s in Grenada and ended on a high note with 4/28 against a Barbados XI at the Kensington Oval.
The Kent Cricket Academy graduate, who recently extended his contract, travelled to the Caribbean under the guidance of former Kent and England spinner Min Patel, who is Kent’s specialist spin coach.
