Sorry I haven't been around much folks...

First topic message reminder :


I'm just taking a break from it all whilst I focus on my move to a different country (...Wales)

Starting a business from scratch all over again is a daunting task...so if you know of anyone in the Barry/Vale area who is in need of some lessons, let me know!

If you're stumped for something to write, I may be able to bail you out although it will probably be a load of old balls.
Good luck, may the fours be with you.

I think there's a pun in there somewhere. Maybe.

i am a cricket man and bowled off-break. dad played for somerset 2nds before ww11. when younger i was tom graveney's greatest fan. seen many a fine knock at the erinoid ground.
have seen in tandem the two greatest fast bowlers in the world, wes hall and clive griffiths, who could wobble a ball like a yoyo. also fs truman and brian statham. george was the finest fast bowler this country ever produced

Hall & Griffith were formidable, but there wasn't much else around at that time.

I'd throw Lillie & Thomson or Roberts and Holding into the mix as the best all-time pairing. Given that Malcolm Marshall was also part of the WI pace attack with Roberts & Holding, that made that team something very special.
