This page contains all the statistical information for Michael Preston,
including full batting and bowling averages, best performances and partnerships,
and miscellaneous statistics. I’ve not bothered with the official batting and
bowling average tables since they are identical to the full versions for most
seasons. If you think of anything else that you’d like to see here, then please
don’t hesitate to let me know :)
Please note that the best performances and partnerships are generally kept up to
date as each season progresses, but that the averages and statistics tables will
only be updated to include each new season’s data after the awards’
presentations at the annual dinner.
