Peter Haslop

Peter Haslop (born 17 October 1941) is a former English first-class cricketer.

Haslop was born at Midhurst in October 1941 and grew up there as a child. He played cricket at the age of ten for Woolbeding, before moving to Midhurst Cricket Club after taking over 100 wickets in a season aged 16. He was then recommended to Hampshire, who signed him on a trial basis. Having begun playing for the Hampshire Second XI in 1961, Haslop made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Hampshire in a televised match against the touring Pakistanis at Bournemouth in 1962. He deputised in this match for first-choice bowlers Derek Shackleton, Butch White and Malcolm Heath. He continued to play for the Hampshire Second XI until 1965, but with Alan Castell's conversion from leg spin to pace bowling, Haslop became surplus to requirements at Hampshire. He instead went into coaching and played club cricket in Southampton for Deanery Cricket Club in the Southern Premier League. He made a second one-day appearance against in the same competition against Worcestershire, before White returned. Haslop is a regular spectator of cricket matches at the Rose Bowl.
