39 matches (in first-class cricket for Gloucestershire – 2013-16), 2,687 runs at 46.32, 11 centuries
I was tempted to pick Bill Athey, who was technically top class and a very good professional.
He gave me the guidance to knuckle down and I suddenly realised I was wasting my talent and being a bit of a drunkard really.
If I roomed with him the lights were off at nine o’clock! The only time I was allowed the telly on late was the Dennis Taylor versus Steve Davis snooker final...
