I'd seen him sat on the balcony - didn't know who he was either. Played a few years at Leicester apparently. More pertinently, a good friend of Glen Chapple!

Good news, and I'm glad he's opted for a break rather than playing in the Big Bash. Would love him to get his red ball game back - an England place is not beyond him.

Good signing for Sussex @big nev lookalike

And of course Aussie 'superstar' Travis Head as captain and Stephen Finn bolstering the bowling.
Ben Brown has left though - wouldn't mind him at Lancs.

Some good experience there with those 3 to add to the promising younger players. Hopefully Travis Head will score more runs this season. A big shame about Ben Brown but I’m sure he will do very well ,wherever he goes.

Yes I think there'll be quite a few counties sniffing around him.

Reading David 'Bumble' Lloyd's book, 'Around the world in 80 pints'
Very funny opens with..
'For those of you who know me as 'that bloke off the telly', I have to let you know that being George Clooney's body double, and therefore a renowned international sex symbol, only forms part of the Bumble package. And for Nasser Hussain, who for some reason refers to me by an alternative nickname, a lesson in pronunciation. There is no silent 'C' in Clooney, for goodness sake, show some respect.

One of my cricketing heroes., and a much better player than his own anecdotes would suggest.

I remember seeing him scoring two centuries for Lancashire at Southport. As you know it's a small ground but they were classy innings - sun drenched days, beer and cricket are a fine combination.
Quiton de Kock retired from test cricket aged 29. Said he wants to spend more time with his family. Still fully committed to white ball cricket.
Such a shame this. Wonder if it's a sign of things to come. I love test cricket but can understand that players have families they wish to be with, especially now with Covid rules on tours etc. And of course, white ball cricket is much more lucrative in terms of the franchises around the world.

Great win for SA against India to level the series with one to play. With Bangladesh beating NZ in the 1st test both of the supposedly best teams in the world have lost. Funny how NZ's batting suddenly looks fragile without Williamson.
Forget the debacle in Australia - test cricket lives!
