Michael Holding [a true gent and a giant of man, with a voice like liquid mahogany] and the BEWCC team at the opening ceremony
It's back ..and this time bigger than ever before.
The cup has come to Cambridge - with the opening ceremony on Sunday July 26 at Fenners featuring an invitational 11; graced by the presence of Michael Holding, the legendary West Indian fast bowler, and the finest curry in Cambridge. The 350 visitors enjoyed a great day of cricket and friendship.
PLAYING ARE: India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Australia [toast], New Zealand, South Africa, West Indies north and south, Ireland, England and some solicitors.
Our Bar of England Wales CC leader made his usual sterling opening address: rarely in a speech about cricket would you expect to see the names of Hitler, Stalin and Chairman Mao - but that is what JC is all about.
Also featuring the Lord Chief Justice and the Master of the Rolls, the opening ceremony passed off without a hitch. Fenners - an interesting ground surrounded by a number of new build housing estates - was bedecked in the flags of all the competing countries [and Wales].
