A great cricketer must be an artist and express himself in his strokes.
I have been treated as a freak, rather like the fat lady at the circus.
As we at all times criticise the Premier for his management of home affairs, call Mr Butler a fool for his Budget, find fault with Beecham's conducting, or Gielgud's performance, can we not, sometimes, say that our cricketers are not quite so brilliant as usual?
