Craig White (born December 16, 1969, Morley Hall, Yorkshire) is a cricketer for Yorkshire. White was brought up in Australia but turned his back on the country in favour of England, his country of birth. White masqueraded as an all-rounder for 30 Test matches but his time in the England set-up was largely a stunning blaze of ineptitude. While he demonstrated brief flashes of competence in England's home series against the West Indies in 2000. he quickly returned to type the following summer - the 2001 Ashes series saw him average 7.60 with the bat and 189.00 with the ball. Craig White is also rhyming slang for shite


In admiration of White's effortness ability to be inept, England fans devised a song which would be sung whenever White was due to appear.

WHEREVER THERE IS INJURY I SHALL BE THERE

READY TO ANSWER THE CALL AT ANY SECOND

SEE ME BAT LIKE A GIRL!

WATCH ME BOWL LIKE JOEY DEACON!

FOR I AM CRAIGWHITE MAN, AND I SHALL ALWAYS PREVAIL!
