Charles Edward 'Charlie' Shreck was born (6 January 1978) at Truro, Cornwall and educated at Polwhele House School and Truro School. He is an English professional County cricketer who has also played first class cricket in New Zealand. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler. He played for Nottinghamshire 2003 to 2011, having previously played for Cornwall.
Despite being unable to bowl Nottinghamshire out of relegation from the First Division in the 2003 season, and again being unable to garner a place during 2005 through injury when the team were once again at the top of the tree, Shreck nevertheless found a place during his year's exile from the English game in New Zealand, where he played three games for Wellington.
Shreck rediscovered his niche as a tailend batsman but potent bowler in a Nottinghamshire side that failed to retain their position in the first division of the County Championship in 2006. During the 2006 season he was an effective wicket taker, including taking 8 wickets for 31 runs in the second innings against Middlesex. Shreck has continued to perform well in the 2007 season, including taking 7 wickets for 35 runs in a Nottinghamshire vs Derbyshire Division Two County Championship match.
During a June 2007 Twenty 20 match Shreck was injured after bowling just one ball; it was driven fiercely back by Derbyshire's Michael Dighton, striking him on the shin. Shreck made his comeback in a Pro40 Division 1 game in which Nottinghamshire easily defeated struggling Gloucestershire by 116 runs. In 2007/08 he was back again in New Zealand playing club cricket for Hutt District but mainly representing Wellington as an overseas player in first class competitions.
