'''Gregor Ian Maiden''' (born 22 July 1979) is a Scottish former [[cricketer]] who played for [[Scottish national cricket team|Scotland]].<ref>{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/8/8174/8174.html| title = Gregor Maiden | publisher = CricketArchive | accessdate = 12 March 2010}}</ref> During the 2003 season he played for [[Lancashire County Cricket Club|Lancashire]].
Maiden was born in [[Glasgow]] and attended [[Hutchesons' Grammar School]], before going on to study at [[Loughborough University]] along with fellow Scotland cricketers [[Fraser Watts]] and Simon Smith. After three years, he graduated with a 2.1 honours degree in Sports Science.
A frontline batter and off-spin bowler, Gregor had a nomadic club career, having spells with several clubs in the West of Scotland and a brief stint at Lancashire (he suffered a cruciate ligament injury shortly after signing for them), until in 2004 he signed for the popular Grange club in [[Edinburgh]], where he has played since.
In his only List A appearance for Lancashire CCC, in 2003 vs India 'A', his stand of 130 (Maiden scored 62) alongside Chris Schofield created a List A World Record for the Highest 9th Wicket Partnership. The record has since been beaten by Chris Read and Andrew Harris in 2006.
After his cricketing career, Maiden worked in the banking sector in Edinburgh.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.thecricketpaper.com/features-and-columns/1318/where-are-they-now-scotland-1998-natwest-trophy-giantkillers/ |title=Where are they now?
