South Canterbury farmer's cricket pitch reports hit it out of the park AL WILLIAMSMYTCHALL BRANSGROVE/STUFFGlenavy Cricket Club captain Rous 'Ross' McCulloch with his Timaru Herald GCG pitch report. From the tiny South Canterbury town on the banks of the Waitaki River, Ross 'Rous' McCulloch Glenavy Cricket Club captain, Glenavy Volunteer Fire Brigade member, Rural Bachelor of the Year finalist, sheep farmer and online larrikin is attracting clicks with his classic Kiwi humour. It has just had an artificial pitch installed, which serves as the backdrop for McCulloch's weekly "pitch reports". The pair started playing around with online video content about 12 months ago, as a bit of a laugh. "You see pitch reports all the time in cricket and I thought I would take the p*** and have a laugh."
