Phew. Just when I thought this would be a story about T20, which I find brain numbingly boring, it segues into a nice little tale about the Don. Great stuff.
Actually, if GH writes about T20, whether it be IPL, BB or some tinpot tournament somewhere, I’d probably read it, but from anyone else – No, thanks. Am I right to shun T20? I’ve never watched a game, never read about and so, consequently, never discuss it. Friends I played with in the days before T20 was a twinkle in anyone’s eye watch every BB game they can. Can anyone convince me to change my mind? I doubt even Gideon’s writings could do that, but today’s story could be a start
I guess there might have been other days where, if not for getting out early unluckily, they could have gone on and made a big score. It’s the nature of sport, in football they go on about hitting the post; Nunez did it 4 times in one match recently for Liverpool, never been ‘done’ before, but in reality he missed the goal. Same in cricket, Tate missed the wicket. Bradman was right to forget, or not mention, it.
