An Englishman of Serbian descent, Ogrizovic was a goalkeeper who played for Chesterfield, Liverpool and Shrewsbury before becoming a cult hero at Coventry City. During his time at Shrewsbury Town, Ogrizovic played for Shropshire County Cricket Club, and although he played only three games, as a bowler, he has the wicket of the great Sir Vivian Richards in his kitty. Not too bad a batsman to dismiss, eh?

Ogrizovic is currently the goalkeeping coach at Coventry City.
