Athletic career
Trescothick is a left - handed batsman . He has played first class cricket for Somerset since 1993 . In the years in which he had international assignments, he regularly played only a few matches at the beginning of the season for Somerset.
Between 2000 and his retirement from the national team in 2008, Trescothick played in 76 test matches and 123 one-day internationals (ODIs) for England. He was captain of the team in two test matches and ten one-day internationals . He was also used as a wicket keeper in five one-day internationals .
There have been ups and downs in his international career. He often failed to take advantage of a good start to his inning in such a way that he could score a century . Since 2006 Trescothick suffered from burnout syndrome and depression , which in particular meant that he had to repeatedly cancel his participation in the national team's multi-month tours abroad in winter. For this reason, he resigned from international sport in 2008, his last test match assignment was in 2006. His autobiography Coming Back to Me was awarded the British literary prize William Hill Sports Book of the Year .
Of all still active English professionals, he achieved the most runs in both Test Cricket (5825 runs, 14 Centuries) and ODIs (4335 runs, 12 Centuries). In 2005 he was voted one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year .
At the national level, Trescothick was one of the most successful batsmen in the years following his retirement from the national team. Between 2008 and 2011, he scored more than 1000 runs in the English County Championship each season . In 2011 he achieved more than 2500 runs in all English competitions (First Class, List A and Twenty20 cricket) and was named Player of the Year by the Professional Cricketers Association, as in 2009.
