Graeme Peter Swann (born 24 March 1979) is an English cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm offbreak bowler. He made his cricketing debut with home team Northamptonshire in 1997. Swann played a single One-day International against South Africa. Though his 2005 season couldn't top his success in 2004, where he joined the National Academy, he managed to take 30 wickets during Nottinghamshire's County Championship winning season of 2005. In 2007 Swann was chosen to accompany England on their tour of Sri Lanka as their 2nd off spin bowler, along with Monty Panesar.

Career

Swann began his domestic career for Northamptonshire, hitting a maiden first-class hundred in 1998. Touring South Africa and Zimbabwe with the England A-team, Swann took 21 wickets at 25.61. While averaging 22 with the bat, Wisden commented that "Swann did spin the ball appreciably and emerged as a definite candidate for elevation. He had the potential to become a genuine allrounder, with a wide range of attractive strokes, though he needs to use them more selectively." [http://content-usa.cricinfo.com/ci/content/player/20431.ht Graene Swann] ] at CricInfo. Retrieved 8 October 2007] In 1999 Swann was brought into the England team during the final test against New Zealand. He did not play, however he was played in an ODI against South Africa following an injury to Ashley Giles.

Returning to domestic cricket, Swann moved to Nottinghamshire in 2005. Swann finished the season of 2007 with 516 runs and 45 wickets in domestic cricket, which led to his recall to the England side against Sri Lanka. While England fell heavily in defeat during the first match, Swann hit 34 to help seal a victory for England in the second match, and took 4/34 and hit 25 in the third as England took a lead in the series of 2:1. [ [http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/england/7032958.stm Sri "Lanka v England 3rd ODI"] BBC News retrieved 8 October 2007] However an unsuccesful tour of New Zealand followed and Swann was unable to consistantly occupy a place in the England ODI side. He remains in the squad but faces tough competition from Samit Patel who has already taken his first 5 wicket haul against South Africa in just his third match.
