@FPayne100 @BLACKCAPS i was there that day. The taped up old school bat. The hook way up into the Lancaster Park embankment. The bemusement on Nawaz's face. That sort of thing was unheard of then. Am I right in saying that Coman was the first player from all countries to play an ODI but not a test?

The best thing my students ever gave me. I thought they were just really diligent note-takers the whole semester, but it turns out they were compiling a book of all the craziest things I'd said, all *very much* out of context. It's 152 pages long.
