A right-handed opening batsman, Peter Ingram has been on the domestic scene for nearly a decade. A clean hitter who turns his starts into massive scores, Ingram took a few years to find his feet at Central Districts. His form really picked up from the 2006-07 season, when he scored in excess of 600 runs. In 2008-09, he amassed 963 runs at 63.80, his best returns in a summer till date. The following season, he scored 530 Plunket Shield runs at 75.71. In a match where Central Districts were left to chase 445, Ingram and Jamie How pulled off an astonishing win, adding 428 for the first wicket, with Ingram contributing an unbeaten 245 to that partnership. That earned him a call-up to the limited-overs squad to face Bangladesh, at the age of 31. Growing up, Ingram was a keen rugby player but gave up the sport when he broke his jaw during trials. Outside of cricket, he's a schoolteacher in Taranaki.
