Wearing Thursday 🏏

Are you playing against a team that doesn’t have any spinners like the @windiescricket in the 70s/80s when Larry Ghomes or @ivivianrichards would occasionally bowl a few off breaks? #cricket #fast #men #only

@windiescricket @ivivianrichards Spin is coming Sir ( just need to Nick the dog’s other ball 😉) Hope all is well 👍

@windiescricket @ivivianrichards All good thanks Loving your work 😎👍👍

Nice rub of the chest in order to hide the fact that it has come squarely off the wrist band of the glove 😂😂

Look slightly out of nick Mark, get to lunch and re group 🏏

@alexjshortt @OBCWright23

Surely off the glove, that. Caught at point.

@BenMacca8 😂

Don’t show the pain - don’t let on to the bowler that it hurt 😔

@jonz21

@harryepoole yep. Let’s bring someone in under the lid here.

That’s going upstairs buddy! If they’ve got better tech than my iPhone you could be in trouble. It’s clear they’ve worked out you don’t like the short stuff. There’s be nothing pitched up from me anymore

Your gone mate clearly off the glove😃😃

Inconsistent bounce! Quick - on the phone...call in the ECB Pitch Inspectors? 'Sorry, they're unavailable...' 'Hmm...gone over to Chelmsford after a match lasting only 2 days?...' 'No..are en route to Taunton...'Why's that?!'... 'Leach has just taken 3 wickets in one session'..

Just rock and roll that for me……okay I’m ready for my decision……..

This tribute to Donald/Atherton becoming your magnum opus

Lightweight. Brian Close would not of rubbed it.

“Get a man in closer for Friday”

Off the glove and straight into Ollie Pope's mitts

A step back in time, like watching Brian close v the west indies. Nice change of helmet today. Got those gloves out of the way well. As malcolm Marshall once said "rub it man, cause you know it hurts"

There's glove in that. Walk you f****n cheat!

Nasty!

Ouch😳

This week one to the throat and now the chest. Who’s bowling Michael Holding

That’s gotta sting.

I think there was bat involved... needs to go upstairs for a review .

Look a bit out of your crease there, trying to impose yourself...Thursday's not having that

A Brian Close pose 😂

My brother used to throw an old plastic French boule with holes in at me on the patio. The bounce, pace and swing was like facing Jeff Thompson. I was often playing that shot u just did 🤣

Bit of bounce on day 4 🏏

That is an absolute Jaffa, I think all considered that Church played that well

Taken like a man 😂👍

Brian Close - David Steele memories. Let the bowler do the staring. Looking to dig in until lunch.

Got a chest pad on!🌝
