Oh man. He's not just a cricketer, he's my talisman of relative youth. He wasn't only older than me, he was playing at the top level when I was 11. That's helped slow down my ageing. I'm going to find it much harder to talk to that girl in the disco now that he's not around. In fact, might be a move to the over 35s circuit.
He didn't look great the other night when I saw him on TV; he scored 40 in good time but I wondered whether he had a bet on that he could hole out to deep cover. So probably the right time to go.
