Phil sat just in front of us as Chris Rogers made his maiden Test ton at Durham, and I have the picture of him applauding Buck off the ground at close of play. A lot of people are unhappy about the absence of representation from ECB, but to be fair, the funeral is taking place in a school sportshall, so I don't think there would be enough room for everyone who ought to be there or who wants to be there. I mean, we criticise them on here from time to time, so maybe they would have felt entitled to engage in some good natured heckling! A statement released by the ECB said Middlesex "have accepted non-compliance of their CPA with ECB, and that the Club has been financially mismanaged over a number of years and is in breach of the ECB financial regulations.

I have no photographs of Janet as an adult; she photographed players but didn’t send in pictures with her own image. For some reason, Janet sent me two pictures; one of her as a baby (as requested) and the other from 1953 when she was nine years old.

The Daily Telegraph article on this says that Compo used to share a flat with Hughes, which I wasn't aware of, and that Robbo played with Hughes at junior level for New South Wales and Australia (I know they played together for Australia U-19s).I think Michael Clarke will be addressing the media at 11:00pm GMT, and it would be a surprise if it is to say anything other than the opening Test v India on Thursday (and possibly subsequent matches) will not take place.
