Gareth,

Interested to hear that Alistair Cook was an Oakham boy. Another Alistair (Fearn) watched him score his ton in India; he is following the test team out there. Perhaps Ali's trademark toss it so high in the air that nobody's quite sure where it will land approach to off spin was more of a challenge to him than Harbhajan? I'm disappointed to hear that Mr Fearn now bowls "seam-up".

Also in the news is that England's "A" side currently touring the West Indies is dominated by Granthamians. We have Ryan Hinds - ex Buckminster, I believe - for the West Indies, Stuart Broad - Ex Harlaxton Primary School and son of former cricketer of the year, Chris Broad - and Luke Wright - ex Bottesford, now a rising star with Sussex - for the England side. Good luck to them all.

Dan.
