was coached for a while by an ex england wicket keeper, only played 4 tests and 1 ODI but still.  can't remember his name though.  he was stuck behind allan knott during his career so never got much of a chance

Richard Blakey coached me when I was younger - anyone remember him - he did tour with England at one point. I was also coached by Zimbabwean international John Rennie when I was younger, as he was club pro for a year (my trigger movement at the crease is still the same as the one he got me doing when I was 11!)
