Struggling to contain his laughter, the game began and Trescothick proceeded to smear the Middx attack to all areas of the ground, although he was supposedly so fat that he waddled between the wickets.
Junior game in West Australia. Under 16 rural carnival or something along the line. I still remember running out a chubby bloke taking a SINGLE from long on with a direct hit, and I was by no mean a lethal arm. The other batsmen almost caught him.
Who was he?. Dunno, random plodder. We dont like fatties in our team
It wasnt Cosgrove in that particular match though.
