For over a decade Luke Fletcher has been a firm fan favourite at
Trent Bridge. This 6'6" gentle giant never gives less than 100 per
cent for Nottinghamshire, but a laugh and a joke are never far from
his lips. Within the space of a week in 2017 he went from the highs
of winning a Lord's cup final to suffering a serious injury. As
with most events in his life, the incidents provided scope for his
infectious humour, much of it self-deprecating. An uncanny ability
to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and his on-off
relationship with the strength and conditioning gurus has often
landed him in hot water, providing ammunition for witty comebacks.
But although a clever quip is never far away, the broad-beamed
paceman has earned the respect of everyone in the game. He has
played against - and got the better of - virtually every opponent
he has faced and has a career record to be proud of. In Tales from
the Front Line, 'Fletch' serves up laughs aplenty as he takes us on
an anecdotal journey through our summer game.
*Large format hardback* The 156th edition of the most famous sports
book in the world--published every year since 1864--contains some
of the finest sports writing of the year and covers every
first-class game in every cricket nation, making it the cricketers'
bible worldwide. @WisdenAlmanack
