Andy Moles

Andy Moles

Andrew James Moles (born February 12, 1961), in Solihull, Warwickshire was an English first class cricketer for Warwickshire County Cricket Club and Griqualand West. After his playing career he became a coach and currently coaches Northern Districts in New Zealand domestic cricket.

Moles was a gritty and determined, but unspectacular, right handed opening batsman. He played from 1988 until his retirement in 1997 for Warwickshire, where he scored 13,316 runs at an average of 38.59. During the late 1980's he also played domestic cricket in South Africa for Griqualand West and in three seasons managed 1,989 runs at 64.16.

After retiring as a player, he started his coaching career at Griqualand West, staying there for five years. In 2003 he was appointed as the national coach of Kenya, but he had a turbulent time due to infighting between the Kenyan Cricket Board and players which led him to quit the job at the end of 2004. He took over as the coach of Scotland in January 2005 but quit the job after less than a year as a result of disagreements with some of the senior players. He was appointed coach of Northern Districts in New Zealand domestic cricket for the 2006-2007 season, and in his first season helped guide the team to the State Championship. He is currently contracted as coach of Northern Districts until the end of the 2008-2009 season.
