Description
Light and shade, in cricket as it is in life. So, on Story Time this weekend, learn about the batsman who spent three days presumed dead in no-man's-land only to become an unexpected Test cricketer 15 years later. Stick around to hear about WG's highest Test score and one of Jack Hobbs' finest hours. A classic Scottish name comes later, likewise a 1984 thriller. We also mark a place for a double that'll never be forgotten at Tallangatta CC.
