Spotted at Dartford CC, he joined Kent in 1985, for whom he would play all of his first-class matches. A right arm fast medium bowler and aggressive lower order batsman, he took 77 wickets and scored 565 runs in 34 games for the county. During his début season in 1987, he took 6 for 109 against Somerset at Bath, figures which would be the best of his career. In 1988, he hit a forty-two ball fifty—including four sixes and five fours—against a touring West Indian side, having earlier taken the wicket of Richie Richardson.〔 Kelleher was released by Kent in 1991. He later signed a contract with Surrey but did not appear for them in first-class cricket. He died by his own hand in 1995 at his home in Erith, Kent after overdosing on Prozac.〔("When the endgame becomes a matter of life or death" ) - Times Online〕〔(Chris Lewis - A Lost Talent ), BBC Radio 5 Live 7 July 2009〕 He was a nephew of Harry Kelleher, who played for Northants and Surrey in the 1950s. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Danny Kelleher」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
