Charl Willoughby was a pacey, left arm bowler who contributed to the South African bowling attack both in tests and one day internationals in the early 200’s. Born in South Africa he went on to represent English counties Leicestershire, Essex and Somerset, where he now lives working as a financial advisor as well as regularly turning out for all start cricket team Lashings XI.
