Cricket career
Pringle made his first-class debut for Somerset late in the 1986 season against Worcestershire, bowling 10 overs in the first-innings without a wicket. Batting as part of the lower order, he scored 10 and 11 as Somerset lost by an innings after being forced to follow on.[1] By the time of his next appearance in the County Championship midway through the following season, Pringle was considered more of a batsman, being moved up to number five.[2] Playing back-to-back matches, Pringle enjoyed his best batting display in the next match, against Warwickshire. He scored a career-high 79, and shared a fourth-wicket partnership of 193 with Martin Crowe.[3] His final match for Somerset in August 1991 against the touring Sri Lankans.
