Cricket career

For most of his early career with Northamptonshire, Bailey was the understudy to the long-serving wicket-keeper David Ripley. When Ripley retired in 2001, Bailey took over for three years until Gerard Brophy arrived in 2004 and took his place because of his superior batting. Bailey was released at the end of that season.[1]

During his time at Northants, he was involved in a bust-up with team-mate Russell Warren, after Warren started dating Bailey's fiancée. Warren was eventually forced out of the club after protests from other members of the team.[2]

Bailey captained an MCC team that toured Mozambique in February 2009, playing six one-day matches.[3]

Bailey has an ECB level 3 coaching certificate and is the former coach of the Argentinian cricket team[4] He now coaches Scottish club side Carlton CC.[5] He was acting coach of the Scotland national cricket team from September 2018 to January 2019.[6]
