Paul, have you ever read Jon Agnew's book 'Eight days a Week'? He describes DeFreitas as quite difficult to get along with sometimes, but he always seemed ok to me.

How did you find him and Dev as individuals bearing in mind they both had up and down England careers?

By the way, not digging for anything libellous, just wondering how these guys were when they came back into the county fold?

Dev is a good guy. Daffy yes good bloke in many ways, he used to live at my home for a couple of years after his first marriage broke up that's when I was still at my mums as she had room. Let's put it this way there's no loyalty sometimes to people who have looked after him rent free that's all id say
Why did he have so many clubs is a good question to ask

Enough said, no need to Expand further. I've heard that Dev always has time to chat cricket with a clubby like us. Someone I'd like to meet.

I think we all beg to differ.... I think this short topic has had more likes already than any other topic on here.

Little stories like this is what we crave... All of us have dreamt of doing what you have done... Play with and against the biggest names in the game... It's great hearing it and just for a second imaging it is us in your shoes

I agree also,
Great reading about your memories

Look forward to a couple of bats off you,in the new year
