Steve has featured in all the matches to date mainly because (a) He buys skip a pint (b) Pays his match subs. first (c) His wife makes lovely teas and (d) Has taken the umpire home to Newport.
Industrious, pertinacious, vigorous, conscientious and indefatigable are 5 words that Steve has trouble spelling. He tells me he is enjoying his first season with the Evergreens and his wife is thankful that he's out of her way Thursday evenings. Expect more runs from Steve now that Pete Lambourne (no relation) has given him his old boots.
Champagne moment: With Steve as wicket keeper, two batsmen attempted a quick single, Steve kicked the ball a full 20 metres hitting the stumps and running out the astonished batsman.
Deceptive pace in the field - actually much slower than he looks
ReplyDeleteI blame the hip replacement, my left leg runs twice as fast my right leg, hence the circular motion.
