Profile
A bustling fast-medium bowler, Tim Murtagh came through the Surrey age groups and was a member of the England U-19 squad during the 1999 World Cup, subsequently touring Sri Lanka with a British Universities side in 2002 (he represented them between 2000 and 2003 and in 2001 took 6 for 86 against the touring Pakistanis). He battled his way into the Surrey side, and in 2005 took a competition-best 6 for 24 in a Twenty20 tie against Middlesex at Lord's. Nevertheless, he moved north of the river to Lord's in 2007 where he felt his opportunities would be greater.
