Liam Botham Biography

Liam Botham is one of the most popular and richest Cricketer who was born on August 26, 1977 in Doncaster, Victoria, Australia. The club won the 2001 Tetley Bitter Cup while he was at Newcastle. He also reached the finals of the European Shield.

In 2004, Botham also played for London Broncos on loan, and in 2005 signed for Wigan Warriors, feeling he could not get a regular place in the Rhinos team. In his three seasons in rugby league, usually as a second-row, he played 28 senior games, scoring 7 tries and 6 goals.

In 2005, he announced his retirement aged 27 after a neck injury.

After one season of senior cricket, he quit cricket and signed for West Hartlepool rugby union club. He was a fullback or winger. Later, he moved to Cardiff and the Newcastle Falcons.

Botham made his debut in 1997 for England’s under-21 team against France. He then participated in the 1998 SANZAR tournament, South Africa. Clive Woodward called him up to the senior England squad for their 2000 South Africa tour. He was a part of tour matches against the Leopards, Griqualand West, but he never received a senior international cap.

After becoming disillusioned with rugby union, he switched sports again in 2003 to rugby league. He initially joined the Bradford Bulls and had a short spell playing for their academy team. He then signed a dual-code contract with Super League club Leeds Rhinos, who felt that signing the inexperienced Botham was less of a risk as he also played for their partner rugby union club Leeds Tykes.
