graeme and ike

Graeme Hick was still playing cricket.

His age is not known, although he did have a childhood friend named Adam.

Now he is retired.

Cric info informed me of this while i was in the surrey press box looking down on mark ramprakash.

Ironic.

Or weird.

Or a coincidence.

The whole cricinfo article never once mentions Merv Hughes.

How could you talk about Graeme Hicks test career and not mention Merv.

It's like doing a story on tina turner and not mentioning Ike.

For those people have never heard the story, Merv Hughes is the reason that Hick, the flat track bully, never made it at test level.

He sledged him so much, that Graeme hears merv in his nightmares.

Which is scary when you think about it.www.cricketwithballs.com... fighting the war on tony greig
