List of Illustratio
ns
1. Auntie Olwen, me and Mum (big lady) on holiday in Morecambe.
2. Me and Dad with the Accrington Combination Trophy won with Cedar Swifts (Dad was the manager).
3. Me at the age of seven at Peel Park Primary School.
4. Lancashire CCC in 1965.
5. Some say that modern players have become distanced from the fans – there was no chance of that in 1971.
6. Waving to the crowds at Bramall Lane, Sheffield, in 1973, my first season as captain. Lancashire rarely got a warm welcome in Roses clashes.
7. I’ve always enjoyed my music, but I’m not sure this song ever troubled the hit parade.
8. Pre-season training was a little different in 1973, too, and things could go horribly wrong if your timing was out.
9. It’s 2 June, and the game at Buxton has been transformed by snow, after we had piled up a big total. Studying it closely are (L-R) Peter Lever, Clive Lloyd, Frank Hayes, Dickie Bird and me.
10. When I started wearing protective headgear in 1971 to field close to the bat, it was such an unusual sight that I had to do a whole photoshoot.
11. And this is why it was necessary.
12. Though when ‘Deadly’ Derek Underwood got on a sticky wicket at Lord’s, I was much safer and always in the action, taking three catches.
13. The pre-season photocall 40 years ago was a very different beast to today. Lining up here (L-R) are: Bernard Reidy, Bob Ratcliffe, Jack Simmons, me, Andy Kennedy and Peter Lever, all of whom had played Lancashire League cricket.
14. Lifting the Gillette Cup in 1975 – the only trophy of my time in charge of Lancashire. In those days, the crowd was allowed onto the hallowed turf.
15. There were only 24 of these moments in my Test career. My four overs didn’t result in a single wicket, though I did manage to dismiss Wasim Raja in a one-day international.
16. Lancashire team-mate Farokh Engineer congratulates me during my career-best innings of 214 against India at Edgbaston in 1974.
17. Things must have gone well that innings, as I even tried a sweep shot – the height of daring at the time.
18. One of the most fearsome sights in cricket: Dennis Lillee in full flow on his home patch at Perth.
19. But, famously, it was Thommo who got me in the end – with results that still bring a tear to my eye.
20. Rod Marsh looks on as I try to take the attack to the Australian bowling at Melbourne in the third Test.
21. Arriving back in England after the Ashes series of 1974-75, with my Test career sadly at an end.
22. By 1981, I was beginning to lose some of my enthusiasm for county cricket, and starting to think about my future. You can just make out the glasses I was wearing underneath my helmet, which helped improve my form.
23. Soon after retiring, I became an umpire – here I’m standing at the Parks as Oxford take on Kent in April 1987.
24. As coach of Lancashire in 1995, with Mike Watkinson.
25. A photocall on the day my appointment as England coach was announced, in April 1996.
26. With England captain Mike Atherton ahead of my first game in charge, a one-day international at The Oval against India.
