Gardner was born in June 1966 at Brighton. Moving to Scotland as a child, he was educated at Graeme High School in Falkirk and Larbert High School at Larbert. A club cricketer for Stenhousemuir Cricket Club, Gardner made a single appearance for Scotland in first-class cricket against Ireland at Linlithgow in 1996.[1] Batting once in the match from the middle order, he scored an unbeaten 2 runs in the Scottish second innings. With his medium pace bowling, he took a wicket apiece in both Irish innings', dismissing Kyle McCallan in their first innings and Andrew Patterson in their second.[2] In 2005, Gardner featured in a minor match between Clackmannan and Warwickshire as part of Dougie Brown's benefit year, with Gardner being instrumental in a surprise 8 wicket victory for Clackmannan.[3]
