- He was a right-handed batsman and a left-arm slow bowler.
- He played in 2 Under-19 Tests in 1992 and 13 first-class matches between 1992 and 1996.
- His father is the cricketer and coach Bob Cottam. In 1990 Andy Cottam started playing for Somerset Second XI and Devon.
- In 1992 he was selected for Under-19's tour of Pakistan and played in the Third Test and 2 one-day matches against Pakistan Under-19s.
- That summer he played in 6 County Championship matches for Somerset and in an Under-19 Test against Sri Lanka, when he took 4 wickets for 69 in the first innings.
- However, in 1993 he failed to make the Somerset First XI, apart from a one-day match against Kent. In 1994 he moved to Northants but did not play for the first team and he signed for Derbyshire in 1995.
- He played in 4 County Championship matches and in a University game and was released at the end of the season.
- He returned to Somerset, where his father was director of cricket, and played in 2 County Championship matches in 1996.
- He played for Somerset Second XI in 1997 and for Devon until 1999. Although an economy as a bowler of under three per over in first-class cricket was acceptable, Cottam’s bowling did not look like it would do more than take the occasional wicket and he was always a tail-end batsman, so his first-class career was inevitably a short one.
