Born in Palmerston North, Loveridge represented Central Districts in New Zealand's domestic competitions, as well as playing for Manawatu in the Hawke Cup and in England for Cambridge University.[1]
Batting in the first innings of his only Test, against Zimbabwe, Loveridge fractured a knuckle and was unable to bowl.[2] Loveridge became only the sixth batsman, after Charles Bannerman, Talat Ali, Ewen Chatfield, Andy Lloyd and Sanjay Manjrekar, to retire hurt in his debut Test.[3]
He is now the general manager of New Zealand property company Robert Jones Holdings.[4]
Loveridge has a Bachelor of Arts in history from Cambridge University and a master's in history from Massey University, completed in 2003.[5] [6] [7]
