Paul Collingwood
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paul David Collingwood MBE (born 26 May

1976) is an English cricketer. He was a regular
member of the England Test side, and captain of
the One Day International (ODI) team
(20072008). He is also captain of his county,
Durham County Cricket Club.[1][2][3] Collingwood
is a batting all-rounder, whose batting combines
natural strokeplay with great tenacity. He also
bowls reliable medium pace. Described as a
"natural athlete", he is also regarded as one of the
finest fielders of his time;[1][4] usually fielding at
backward point or in the slips, he has also
deputised as wicket-keeper for England.
His first class debut was in 1996,[5] and he made
his first appearance for England in One Day
International cricket in 2001 and made his Test
match debut in 2003.[6][7] For two years he
remained an occasional Test player, but after
selection for the final Test of the 2005 Ashes, he
secured a regular place. His 206 during the
200607 Ashes was the first double century by an
England batsman in Australia for 78 years and in a
match that England lost. A series of three
consecutive match-winning performances by
Collingwood at the end of the 200607
Commonwealth Bank Series in Australia brought
him enthusiastic approval in the British media. His
"allround display of incredible nerve and tenacity"
helped to secure the trophy for England.[8] In 2010
he led the England team to their first ICC trophy,
the 2010 World Twenty20. He is England's most
capped ODI cricketer and was, until passed by Ian
Bell in 2015,[9] the leading ODI run scorer.[10][11]
He announced his retirement from Test cricket in
January 2011, during the 5th Test of the 201011
Ashes series.[12] He finished on a high, becoming a
three-times Ashes winner as England won a series
in Australia for the first time in 24 years, with
three innings victories contributing to a 31 win.

Early and personal life

Collingwood was born and brought up in Shotley Bridge, near Consett, County Durham by parents David
and Janet,[13][14] along with his elder brother Peter, and was educated at Blackfyne Comprehensive School,
now known as Consett Academy.[1] Introduced to cricket "on the playing fields of Blackfyne
Comprehensive School", Paul was able to "force his way into Shotley Bridge's Under13s team at the age of
just nine".[15][16]
As a teenager, his father, who still remains a member of the Shotley Bridge Cricket Club,[14] persuaded him
to give up football and concentrate on cricket.[17] Collingwood still makes regular visits to his old cricket
club, "...he is a brilliant role model for the kids and his success is an aspiration to follow...".[18]
He currently lives in Northumberland with wife Vicky, whom he married in February 2005 in Cape Town,
South Africa, and their three daughters Shannon (born September 2006),[19] Keira (born 24 February
2008),[20] and Hannah Mae (born 9 February 2011). He is a big fan of Sunderland AFC.[2] His nicknames
are Colly, Weed and Shep; the latter is an apparent homage to the famous Blue Peter Collie dog, Shep.[1][2]
Domestic career
County cricket
Paul Collingwood signed for Durham, his local county cricket side, in 1995, playing first in List A one-day
cricket.[5] When he first came to Durham's attention, Collingwood was regarded "as a bowler who batted a
bit". According to coach Geoff Cook's 2006 assessment it was Collingwood's determination, rather than his
talent, that shone through.[15]

Paul had talent... but I don't think he had any more [talent] than a number of lads who came
through with him at the time...He had terrible luck with his back, he missed an awful lot of
cricket, and a lesser character could well have decided to call it a day. To his credit, Paul
came back and worked harder than he'd ever done before. He couldn't bowl as much at the
start, so he did an awful lot more batting and, straight away, there were obvious signs of
talent there. By the time he forced his way into the Under-19 team he was batting at the top
of the order and the following year he was offered a professional contract.
Collingwood made his firstclass debut against Northamptonshire in 1996, at Durham's Riverside Ground.
He made an immediate impression by taking the wicket of former England all-rounder David Capel with his
first ball, and scoring 91 in his first innings.[21] However, his early years as a first-class player were
characterised by steady and relatively modest performances with bat and ball: in each season from 1996 to
2000, his batting average was between 20 and 30 and his bowling average was between 30 and 60.[22][23]
His breakthrough began in 2000, when he was voted Player of the Year by the Durham members,
particularly for his one-day efforts.[13] His form varied following a back injury, but he hit his stride in 2001,
when he excelled both in the County Championship and in the one-day game.[13] In the six English seasons
from 2001, Collingwood has exceeded a batting average of 40 four times and achieved a bowling average of
less than 40 on three occasions.[22][23]
Recognising his need to improve his all-round game Collingwood took himself off to Australia for their
200001 season where he played for the long-established Richmond Cricket Club in the tough Melbourne
Premier League. At the end of the season Collingwood was awarded the prestigious Jack Ryder Medal for
the best player in the league (an award he shared), and was the first and so far only Richmond player to
ever receive it.
Durham only achieved first-class status in 1992.[24] In the 15 years since then, their best performances in the
two league championships (the first-class County Championship and the List-A (One-Day) National
League) both came in 2006 (finishing sixth and eighth respectively). Following in 2007 with the Friends
Provident Trophy, beating Hampshire by 125 runs, Collingwood picking up 22 runs and bowling figures of
3/33.[24] However, Collingwood's involvement was severely limited by his England commitments and he
made no appearances at all in either competition.[25][26]
This stood in marked contrast to the previous season, when Collingwood was available to Durham for four
of the five Tests, before his England recall for the final Ashes Test; he "pushed his claims for a Test recall
with three centuries in four innings in the Frizzell County Championship."[13] In just 13 appearances in the
County Championship in that 2005 season, Collingwood scored 1103 runs and took 21 wickets, averaging
55.15 and 31.90 respectively.[27]
In the traditional reward for services to a county, Durham awarded Collingwood a benefit year for 2007. He
chose to support two charities through his benefit, Marie Curie Cancer Care and the Cricket Foundation's
"Chance to Shine" project, which encourages cricket coaching in state schools.[28] In that same year, two
days after achieving his fifth Test century at Riverside in an England victory, he joined Liam Plunkett in
helping the county enter its first Friends Provident Trophy final, which they would also go on to win.[29]
Indian Premier League

With England players free to participate in the second season of the Indian Premier League, Collingwood
was signed by the Delhi Daredevils for $275,000 during their second player auction.[30] In the 2011 auction,
he was signed up by Rajasthan Royals for US$250,000,[31] but could not take part in IPL4 due to a knee
injury that he picked up during the World Cup.[32]

International career
England debut
Collingwood's form for Durham in 2001 earned him a call-up to the England One Day International (ODI)
squad, selected for the NatWest Series against Pakistan and Australia that summer,[6] becoming the 162nd to
play for England in ODI cricket.[33] He was not particularly successful on his ODI debut in June 2001,
scoring only two runs and taking no wickets against Pakistan at Edgbaston,[34] and doing poorly (20 runs in
four innings and no wickets) in the rest of the series.[35] Despite this, the selectors showed confidence in
him by choosing him for the 200102 one-day tour of Zimbabwe, where he took his first ODI wicket, that
of Dion Ebrahim in the Third ODI at Harare Sports Club.[36] He starred with the bat in the Fourth ODI at
Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, with a match-winning 77,[37] and made an unbeaten 56 in the final ODI,
also in Bulawayo,[38] helping England secure a 50 whitewash.[39]
Collingwood played in all seven matches of the 2002 NatWest Series against India and Sri Lanka, ending on
the losing side in the final to India.[40] Neither his batting nor bowling during this series were particularly
impressive, averaging less than 24 with the bat and taking only five wickets in the series,[41] but he went on
to make his first ODI century in the 2002/2003 VB Series victory against Sri Lanka at the WACA.[42] While
this performance cemented his position in the England oneday setup, he dislocated his right shoulder while
fielding in a preseason county friendly against Lancashire and was forced to miss most of the 2003
season.[43] Nevertheless, he was awarded a 12-month ECB contract when the winter touring squads were
announced for Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. With Nasser Hussain suffering from a bout of 'flu,[44]
Collingwood made his Test debut against the Sri Lankans in the First Test at Galle in December 2003,[7][13]
becoming the 622nd Englishman to play Test cricket.[45] It was during this game that he established his
position as one of the best English fielders, with five catches and a run-out in the drawn match.[7] Since then
his performances in the field have drawn comparisons with South African specialist fielder, Jonty Rhodes.[1]
With the selection of pace bowler James Anderson for the Third Test, Collingwood was dropped.[46]
Although unable to establish a regular place in the 11-man team, his allround ability and fielding strengths
made him a regular on England's overseas Test tours as 12th Man.[47]
He retained his place in England's one-day side throughout the summer of 2004 despite a knee injury, and
scored an unbeaten 79 in the second match of the NatWest Challenge against India at The Oval, with
England winning the series 21.[48] Collingwood was also England's second highest run-scorer in the 2004
ICC Champions Trophy, scoring 141 runs at an average of 70.5,[49] which included an unbeaten 80 in the
opening game against Zimbabwe.[50] He played in all 11 ODIs against Zimbabwe and South Africa,[51][52]
and was then named in the England Development Squad in May 2005,[53] and the 14-man squad for the
NatWest Series against Bangladesh and Australia and the NatWest International Twenty20 against Australia
that summer.[54]
Ashes 2005
On 21 June 2005, playing for England against Bangladesh at Trent Bridge, Collingwood scored 112 not out
from 86 balls and then took six wickets for 31 runs.[55] These were the bestever bowling figures by an
Englishman in an ODI,[56] and made Collingwood the first player to score a century and take six wickets in
an ODI.[57] This performance surpassed the previous best allround ODI performance, that of Viv Richards,
who scored a hundred and took five wickets against New Zealand in Dunedin in the 1986/1987 season.[58]
Another highlight that was produced that same series was a stunning mid-air catch off the bowling of Steve

Harmison to dismiss Matthew Hayden during the Natwest Series ODI

at Bristol.[59] This catch has subsequently been included by Canada's
The Score television network as a part of their "Score 64" greatesthighlight contest. Pitted against Tiger Woods' chip at the Canadian
Open in the first round, the catch squeezed out a slim victory.[60]
Collingwood also played in England's inaugural Twenty20 International
match, held at the Rose Bowl, where a useful contribution of 49 and the
wickets of Brett Lee and Jason Gillespie helped jump-start England on
its pursuit of the Ashes, with 100-run defeat of Australia.[61]
England celebrate the Ashes

victory. Collingwood's MBE was
to become controversial.
Collingwood was selected for the Test squad at the outset of the series
but was not called into action until bowler Simon Jones was ruled out
due to injury during the Fourth Test at Trent Bridge.[62] Collingwood therefore played only the Fifth Test.
Although he only scored 7 and 10 with the bat that match, his "blocking" alongside Kevin Pietersen in a
60-run sixth wicket stand on the final day helped England draw the match, and clinch the series to take the
Ashes for the first time since 1987.[63] In the 2006 New Year's Honours List, Collingwood was awarded the
MBE,[64] together with other members of the England team, for his role in the successful Ashes victory.
There was some critical comment that his limited role did not warrant the honour as he had played only in
the Fifth Test and scored just 17 runs in 2 innings.[63]
Success in Pakistan and India

Following the successful Ashes campaign in 2005, Collingwood was selected to tour with England to
Pakistan and India in 200506. He played in the First Test in against Pakistan in Multan in 2005, but scored
only 13 runs in his two innings and took no wickets.[65] He was dropped for the Second Test as Michael
Vaughan returned,[66] but came back into the team for the Third Test against Pakistan when the toporder
was reshuffled after Andrew Strauss returned to England for the birth of his first child.[67] Despite
Collingwood making his maiden Test 50 and following it with another in the second innings,[68] England
lost the match and consequently the three-match series 20.[69] In the ODI series, he and Durham teammates
Liam Plunkett and Steve Harmison accounted for the majority of the wickets taken by England, through a
combination of their bowling and fielding.[70]
Following his performance in Pakistan, Collingwood was called into the England team for the First Test
against India in March 2006 after injury and illness respectively to Vaughan and Marcus Trescothick.[71]
Collingwood justified his position in the team with a magnificent 134 not out in the first innings on 2 March
2006, his first Test century.[72] Collingwood thus became the first Durham player to make a Test century for
England.[73] Following this innings, The Times, which had been among the critics of Collingwood's MBE,
ran the headline MBE? Give this man a knighthood![74]
Sri Lanka and Pakistan in 2006

Collingwood kept his place for the first three Tests against Sri Lanka in the summer of 2006.[75]
Uncharacteristically, he dropped two catches during the First Test at Lord's,[76][77] but he scored an
unbeaten half-century.[78] He went on to make up for the dropped catches in the Second Test at Edgbaston,
where he took five catches in two innings while playing his usual batting style as foil (with Andrew Flintoff)
to Kevin Pietersen's 142 in the first innings.[79] In the subsequent Twenty20 International match against Sri
Lanka, he took 422, the best bowling record in Twenty20 Internationals, but still ended on the losing
side.[80]
26/05/2016 15:03

He then followed this up with an important innings in the First Test against Pakistan later that summer,
scoring his second Test century.[81] On this occasion he was the dominant partner, batting for most of his
innings with rookie Alastair Cook. When Cook departed, he continued with Ian Bell to complete his 150
before at last being removed by Danish Kaneria for 186.[82] This score proved to be England's highest of the
series.[83]
Collingwood took his first Test wicket on 6 August 2006, trapping Faisal Iqbal leg before wicket for a
golden duck in the Third Test at Headingley. During this series he also bowled a couple of overs of off-spin,
to the surprise of many, including the commentary team on Test Match Special.[84] Later that summer, he
reached his 100th ODI cap and 50 ODI wickets in the same match by claiming the wickets of Inzamamul-Haq and Abdul Razzaq during the Fifth ODI against Pakistan in Birmingham on 10 September.[85][86]
Ashes 2006/07
Following a successful summer, Collingwood was selected later in 2006
for both the 2006 ICC Champions Trophy squad and Ashes touring
party.[87][88] However, after two lacklustre defeats to India and
Australia,[89][90] critics such as Geoffrey Boycott and some fans began
to question the coaching staff's placement of him in the batting
order.[91]
The return of Andrew Flintoff following an injury would reignite the
ongoing debate about which two of Cook, Bell and Collingwood should
be included in the team, with many speculating that Collingwood would
be the man to miss out.[92] With the sudden departure of Marcus
Trescothick from the tour just over a week before the First Test, the
debate was settled for the time being.[92]
The first ball of the First Test, at the Gabba in Brisbane, bowled wildly
wide by Steve Harmison set the tone for the series.[93] However, on the
fourth day, England seemed to be batting towards a draw, when
Collingwood, who had worked his way to a hardearned 96 was
stumped "...skipping miles down the pitch and trying to smack Warne
over his head to reach a hundred".[94] This was a pivotal moment:

the Test match.[95] In the Second Test at Adelaide, Collingwood made a
career-best 206 in England's first innings, sharing in a 310run fourth
[96]
wicket stand with Pietersen;
he became only the eighth English double centurion against Australia in
[97]
Ashes history,
and the first in Australia since Wally Hammond scored 251 and 200 in consecutive
innings during the 192829 Ashes.[98] In the second innings he added an unbeaten 22 from 119 balls over
nearly 3 hours, while England collapsed to 129 all out and so went 20 down.[99] Collingwood received
some praise but mostly criticism from commentators on the manner in which he batted with the tail-enders.
[100][101]
England fared no better in the Third and Fourth Tests, losing them both, with Collingwood picking up only
60 with the bat in his four innings.[102][103] During the Fifth Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground in January
2007, Australia's Shane Warne revived the controversy of Collingwood's MBE with clearly audible
"sledging" at Collingwood's expense.[104] Collingwood's performance during this Test was mediocre,
scoring 27 and 17 with the bat and not being called upon to bowl a single ball, as Australia won comfortably
by ten wickets.[105]
26/05/2016 15:03
7 of 21
Despite the series ending with a 50 whitewash by Australia, Collingwood finished the series ranked 14th in
the LG ICC World Rankings for Test batsmen.[106]
The Commonwealth Bank One-Day International Series began on a low note for Collingwood, with a loss
in the opening game against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.[107] Despite the defeat being
followed by a narrow win over New Zealand in Hobart,[108] the team and Collingwood went into a rapid
decline, losing a string of four matches.[109] He missed England's 92run victory over Australia due to food
poisoning,[110] but returned to make 106 and capture two wickets in the decisive 14run victory over New
Zealand in the final group stage match.[111] He then hit a century and scored the winning runs as England
won the first of three finals in Melbourne, against Australia,[112] becoming the eighth Englishman to hit
centuries in consecutive ODIs.[113] His innings of 120 not out was the highest ever by an English ODI
player against Australia in Australia.[114] In the second of the finals, he was Man of the Match for the third
consecutive game, topscoring for England with 70 and taking two wickets, as well another difficult catch
off the bowling of Sajid Mahmood to once again dismiss Matthew Hayden.[115]
World Cup 2007

Flush with confidence and in form from the tri-series victory, Collingwood and the English arrived in the
Caribbean with high hopes. However, two unimpressive performances by the team during the warm-up
matches against Bermuda[116] and Australia,[117] followed by defeat to New Zealand in the first Group
match[118] dampened expectations. This was coupled with the removal of Andrew Flintoff from the
vice-captaincy due to an incident of unruly behaviour,[119] which led to speculation that Collingwood would
be in line for the captaincy should either Michael Vaughan or Andrew Strauss be unavailable. However, all
such discussion came to nought as Vaughan remained in charge, despite the reprimanding of Flintoff.
The tournament was uneventful for Collingwood and the English, as he and the team were soon left by the
wayside after qualification into the Super Eight round. Unimpressive victories over Ireland[120] followed by
a nervy 37-run seventh wicket stand with Paul Nixon to victory over Bangladesh[121] along with a close
2-run loss to Sri Lanka[122] and heavy losses to Australia[123] and South Africa[124] meant elimination from
the knockout stages, as Collingwood was only able to manage lower scores with limited successes with the
white ball. He did, however, end up as the tournament's joint top fielder, grabbing eight catches along with
Graeme Smith, and took what is arguably his most stunning catch, to dismiss Devon Smith off the bowling
of Andrew Flintoff during the final Super Eight match versus the West Indies.[125]
2007 season
Collingwood and the team opened their first home Test at Lord's with a dominant first innings against the
West Indies, as Collingwood's score of 111 joined Alastair Cook, Ian Bell, Matt Prior and Kevin Pietersen in
becoming the first ever group of five Englishmen to score centuries at Lord's in the same match.[126][127]
This was followed up during the opposition innings with his second Test wicket, that of Dwayne Bravo.[126]
He then added his second century of the series at Durham's home ground at Chester-le-Street during the
fourth Test, hitting 128 from 188 balls as part of a 169-run seventh-wicket stand with Prior before being
bowled by Corey Collymore.[128] Following his good form in the Test series, Collingwood was named as
captain of the England team for the two Twenty20 Internationals and three One-Day International games
against the West Indies,[3] following previous captain Michael Vaughan's resignation of the position of
captain in the format four days before.[3] Of the Twenty20s, England lost the first but won the second to
draw Collingwood's first Twenty20 International series as a captain. While only contributing 27 from 24
balls in the second match,[129] Collingwood outshone the other English batsmen with his individual effort
during the first, hitting 79 runs from just 41 deliveries.[130] The England team continued into the 50-over
26/05/2016 15:03
8 of 21
ODI matches, winning the first by a comfortable 79 under Collingwood's captaincy, though the man himself
hit only 5 runs.[131] He went on to captain the one-day side against India, where they won the 1st ODI but
lost an entertaining 2nd ODI at Bristol by 9 runs. After the 2nd ODI Collingwood was fined half of his
match fee for a slow over rate. England eventually won the closely fought series 43.
Collingwood was fined 1000 during the 2007 Twenty20 World Championship when he visited a
lap-dancing club prior to England's match with New Zealand.[132] Collingwood led the team to victory over
Zimbabwe in the group stages of the tournament, but England, under his leadership, were later defeated by
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and India to go out of the competition before the final stages. During
England's subsequent tour of Sri Lanka Collingwood led the team to victory in the ODI Series. In the later
Test series, he became the 709th Test wicket of Muttiah Muralitharan, who thus overtook Shane Warne as
the highest Test wicket taker.
2008
Collingwood enjoyed a successful Test series away in New Zealand in early 2008, scoring 244 runs from
three matches at 40.66, passing 50 three times.[133] His ODI game also enjoyed success 151 runs at 50.33
with two half-centuries from his four ODI matches.[134] Collingwood had a less successful home series,
however, scoring only 32 runs in three matches, 24 of these in one innings, and ended the series with an
average of just 10.66.[133] His home ODI series was one of great controversy. While playing in the fourth
match, he appealed controversially for the run-out of Grant Elliott after Elliott had collided with Ryan
Sidebottom and injured himself. While this action drew criticism from the New Zealand dressing room,
there was separate incident in this match (relating to an inadequate England over-rate), for which the ICC
banned Collingwood for four limited-overs internationals. This was for a second offence in twelve months
relating to England, with Collingwood as captain, completing its overs outside of the time limit. Pietersen
was called upon to take over as captain.[135]
Collingwood's poor form continued into the first Test of South Africa's tour of England in July 2008, as he
scored only seven runs in his first innings at Lord's,[136] although replays suggested an umpiring error, the
ball hitting not his bat but only his pad.[137] He was left out of the side for the following Test at Headingley,
making way for Andrew Flintoff,[138] but was recalled for the third Test at Edgbaston, scoring a century and
giving England a chance of beating South Africa and levelling the series.
Half an hour after Michael Vaughan resigned from the Test captaincy, Collingwood relinquished charge of
the ODI squad because it was affecting his ability to enjoy the game. Collingwood told his wife on the night
before his century against South Africa that it was time to go. He later explained, "I've found the extra
workload to be very difficult [...]. It's mentally tiring, and that's the top and bottom of it. I want to have a
smile on my face when I'm playing cricket, and, if I'd have kept going, I'm not sure that would have been the
case."[139][140]
2009
Collingwood deputised as England wicket-keeper for an injured Matt Prior in the second home Test against
the West Indies in May 2009; he enjoyed the experience and was generally successful, including effecting a
catch from an edge by Shivnarine Chanderpaul.[141]
Collingwood's form in the 2009 World Twenty20 tournament wasn't good: in five innings, managing just 63
runs. More important, however, was his form in the longest version of the game, in which he had attained
something like a peak. Going into the 2009 Ashes, indeed, he was relishing his best-ever run in the Test
side, having hoarded three centuries in his last twelve innings.[142]
In the first Test of the 2009 Ashes at the SWALEC Stadium in Cardiff, Collingwood scored 64 in the first
26/05/2016 15:03
9 of 21
innings as England totalled 435. On a flat wicket,

however, this was put into context by the Australians,
who amassed 674 for 6 declared, with four centurions;
Collingwood bowled nine overs, and claimed the wicket
of Brad Haddin caught at deep midwicket. In reply,
England slid to 70 for 5 and seemed certain to succumb
to an innings defeat. In response, Collingwood stayed at
the crease for 5 hours (nearly the whole of the final
day) and top-scored for England with 74 runs from 245
balls. He was ninth man out, edging Peter Siddle to
gully, but final pair James Anderson and Monty Panesar
blocked out the final 11 overs of the match to secure
an improbable draw.[143]
Collingwood plays down the ground during the first

Test of the 2009 Ashes at the SWALEC Stadium.
In the second Test at Lord's Collingwood succumbed to

a loose first-innings dismissal, chipping part-time
spinner Michael Clarke to mid-on for 16 (and earning the ire of his captain Andrew Strauss, who went on to
score 161); England, poised at 302 for 3 before Collingwood's dismissal, subsided to 425 all out.
Nonetheless, England's seamers bowled Australia out for 215, and in the second innings Collingwood
scored a measured 54, acting as foil to the aggressive strokeplay of Matt Prior (their partnership adding 86
in twelve overs) and Andrew Flintoff (51 in eight overs). As Flintoff and Graeme Swann combined to bowl
England to victory, Collingwood contributed two fine slip catches.[144]
After Lord's, however, his form tailed away
considerably: tormented by Australia's seam-bowling
attack, his scores for the rest of the series were 13, 0 and
4, and 24 and 1, bringing his batting average for the
five-match series down to 27.78. Collingwood's
difficulties with the bat seemed to affect his usually
high-class catching, and he dropped three chances of
varying degrees of difficulty on the final day of the
series at the Oval, though he did take a sharp catch to
dismiss Mitchell Johnson for a duck off Steve Harmison
as part of England's surge to a 197-run victory in the
match, and a 21 victory in the series.

surpassed Alec Stewart's record of 170 ODIs to become
England's most capped player.[10][145]
2010 World Twenty20 and Australia

In early 2010, Collingwood led the England Twenty20 team to the 2010 World Twenty20 championship.
Collingwood appeared in all seven games, struggling with the bat as he scored only 61 runs at 10.16, with
the ball he only bowled one over for ten runs, however his prowess in the field continued his four catches
the joint highest with the wicket keeper, Craig Kieswetter, for the England team.[146][147] It was
Collingwood's captaincy that was most praised, as he led England to their first ever ICC trophy, hitting the
winning runs in their seven-wicket victory over Australia in the final.[148]
Collingwood was then rested for the home Test series against Bangladesh, however returned for the
five-match ODI series against Australia in June. During the second match, he overtook Alec Stewart's
record to become England's all-time leading runscorer in the format.[11][149] Following poor batting
26/05/2016 15:03
10 of 21
performances in the 201011 Ashes series, he announced his retirement from Test cricket.[150]
In July 2014, he played for the Rest of the World side in the Bicentenary Celebration match at Lord's.[151]
Coaching
After retiring from international cricket, Collingwood associated with England and Scotland cricket teams
as coach and supporting staff.[152] In November 2014, Paul agreed to return in Scotland's coaching staff for
2015 Cricket World Cup.[153] He then became the captain/assistant coach of Durham which lead them to
winning 2013 LV County Championship the inaugural 2014 Royal London One-Day Cup. Collingwood has
been named as Limited Overs Consultant for England in September 2015.[154]

Wisden Cricketer of the Year

He was chosen as one of the five Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 2007, alongside England teammate Monty
Panesar.[168] In their rationale, Wisden describes him as having become the embodiment of "the sort of
cricketer who not only made the most of his ability but was also determined to keep getting better."
