His batting style is right-hand bat and his bowling style is right-arm leg-spin.

Danny Buckingham was a reliable batting all-rounder, who only very occasionally bowled his right-arm leg spin, but contributed with the bat for Tasmania at a time when the fledgling state side was struggling for success.

His dogged contributions for a side which only very rarely won matches sees him as a member of the state's elite Cricket Hall of Fame.

Danny has been appointed the senior coach of the Burnie/ Yeoman Cricket Club for season 2007/08.
