Career

edit

From Perth, Thistle first played for the state second XI during the 2000–01 season, and later attended the Australian Cricket Academy.[1] A right-arm fast bowler, he did not make his debut at state level until the 2003–04 season, when he played two limited-overs matches in the ING Cup and a single first-class in the Pura Cup.[2][3] On his one-day debut, he took 3/32, including the wicket of John Davison with his second ball.[4] These were to be Thistle's only matches at state level, although he did play several second XI games the following season.[1] He spent the 2005 English cricket season playing for Havant in the Southern Premier Cricket League,[5] and also played several matches for Hampshire's team in the Second XI Championship.[6] In the WACA district competition, Thistle plays for Bayswater–Morley.[7]
