Profile
A county player who has struggled to find a place called home, Jones has tried his hand at Somerset, Northamptonshire and Derbyshire. He's a skiddy medium-fast bowler who has suffered a fair share of injuries, which have hampered his attempts to secure a regular first-team slot. However, given extra responsibility at Derbyshire he found a team where he could have a key role. His 59 wickets in 2006 was a suitable haul, and he'll be hard to replace, as he decided to return to Somerset at the end of the 2006 season.
Andrew McGlashan September 2006
