David Lloyd: 50 not out - dillinger10 - 06-30-2015
The Daily Mail published a nice article on David Lloyd celebrating his 50 years in cricket. Highlights include admitting that facing Sylvester Clarke was "bloody frightening" and that his favourite cricketer of all time is Garry Sobers, a man that he "would even pay to watch golf."
Bumble has been involved in all facets and levels of the game. His passion and love for cricket is rivaled by few. He also makes for a great read on Twitter - he could have had a second career as a standup comedian. Top bloke.
This article also gives me an excuse to post his involvement in the sublime Sky Sports promo for the upcoming Ashes series. Check out the cameo by Mikey Holding.

Mikey's cameo here was far better than Sir Viv's Barry White impersonation:

Though to be fair, Mikey could make reading the phone book sound like Shakespeare.
