Always enjoyed Jack Bannister in his TV work on the Beeb back in the day before SKY, very knowledgeable and had done the hard yards as a bowler, not some public school toff who smacked tired bowlers around and then missed the next match because of their business commitments. Became something of a sporting trade unionist upon retirement, pushing in his role as PCA Chairman for better pay and contracts for cricketers.
