Darren Gough is a right arm fast medium bowler and right handed batsman. 5' 11" and broad in beam, he achieves his pace from a good approach to the wicket and a beautiful, leaping sideways-on action.

Memorable highlights of his Test career included taking the the 23rd hat-trick in Test cricket against Australia at Sydney in 1999.

He retired from Test cricket in 2003 after a knee injury threatened to end his career, having taken 229 wickets with a bowling average of 28.39. He has continued playing one-day international cricket, and became the first Englishman to take 200 wickets in one-day cricket in September 2004. In January 2005, he played for the World XI in the World Cricket Tsunami Appeal one-day international versus the Asian XI.
