Mark Harold Alan Footitt (born November 25, 1985) is an English cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a left arm fast bowler who is currently contracted to Derbyshire.

Biography

Born in Nottingham, Footitt was initially spotted as a 16-year-old, and impressed judges with his raw pace. Subsequently coached by Chris Tolley, and mentored by Greg Smith and Ryan Sidebottom, on his first-class debut the seamer took 4/45 against Glamorgan and shared a 101 tenth-wicket partnership with Chris Read.

This was followed by a call-up to the England Under-19 squad for the series against Sri Lanka but after making just nine first-class appearances for Nottinghamshire, he was released in August 2009 and signed by Derbyshire in November 2009.^[1]
