1 game to go! A massive thanks to the clubs who have made it all possible. I have traveled 9,000km, bowled some serviceable offies, scored 97% of my runs between 2nd slip and gully and caught absolutely nothing! I have also made friends with some of the best people you could ever meet and raised 7K. Hats off to everyone involved.

A view of Australia from fine leg
The final game of the adventure will be next Saturday at Royal Park Brunswick Cricket Club in Melbourne.
A fantastic club where I spent many years and the perfect way to bow out. Joining me will be 10 former teammates, most the wrong side of 40, who have all been busy this week contacting their health insurance providers to add physio & chiro to their coverage. Can't wait!
