Biography edit

Canning grew up in Edgemead, Cape Town, and played cricket for Pinelands Cricket Club.[3] He was signed by Cape Cobras as a prospect. He featured in a few games in the Supersport series in October 2010, and scored a half-century against the Highveld Lions. At the end of the 2009 season, the Cobras signed Dane Vilas – another wicket-keeper batsman – and Canning was released from his contract.[4]
