Dean Headley

Headley is now an ECB match referee and the current director of cricket at Blundell's School.

He was educated at Old Swinford Hospital and then Royal Grammar School Worcester where he excelled at rugby union and cricket.

One of his greatest moments was when he won the Man of the Match award for his performance in the 4th Ashes Test in 1998 at Melbourne: Australia was making light work of chasing a target of 175, before Headley took four wickets in three overs to reduce Australia from 130/3 to 140/7; he finished with 6/60 in the innings and England won by 12 runs, their only Test victory on that tour.

[3][1] On 14 September 1996, Dean Headley equalled a world record by taking three hat-tricks in a single English county season.

[6] The father of three children, Headley enjoys rugby, football, hockey, and golf in his spare time.
