Gregory Mark Strydom (born 26 March 1984 in Pretoria) is a Zimbabwean cricketer. He has played four ODIs for Zimbabwe in 2006.
Strydom is an aggressive right-handed middle order batsman and is a clean hitter of the ball.
In 2003-04, playing for Matabeleland, he scored 128 and 104 in a game against Manicaland which included 16 sixes. Only Andrew Symonds and Jim Stewart have hit more sixes in a first class match. Against the same opponent just three weeks earlier he scored a career best 216.
He has however struggled to succeed in international cricket, making just one half century in his 12 ODIs and failing to score in double figures in seven of them.
Famous quotes containing the word gregory:
“It is the custom of the Roman Church which I unworthily serve with the help of God, to tolerate some things, to turn a blind eye to some, following the spirit of discretion rather than the rigid letter of the law.”
—Pope Gregory VII (c. 1020–1085)
