The Doctor sometimes spent long periods of time playing the game. He embedded an entire summer with the local team at [[Cheldon Bonniface]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings]]'') and at least one full season with the [[Stockbridge Cricket Club]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Autumn (audio story)|Autumn]]'') He had probably also intended to spend a similarly long period playing cricket in the [[Eye of Orion]], but [[Borusa]]'s plan to pluck the Doctor's past selves from the time stream intervened.

The Doctor's ability to play the game varied depending upon incarnation. While his fifth incarnation was evidently an excellent player who was an asset to every side he joined ([[TV]]: ''[[Black Orchid (TV story)|Black Orchid]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Autumn (audio story)|Autumn]]''), his [[seventh Doctor|seventh incarnation]] once flatly claimed that he needed to learn the game because he was no longer the same man. Nevertheless, he seemed to retain a knowledge of the strategy behind the game, as he once cunningly called for a batsman on [[Doctor's Invitation Eleven|his team]] to deliberately throw a [[full toss]] in order to bring the match to a dramatic conclusion.
