Gilchrist joins our family ... and maybe Sachin Tendulkar will too ....


I have been dying to announce this on Cricketfamily and now I can:

Adam Gilchrist will play Twenty20 cricket for Lord's home team, Middlesex, next year.

We are all delighted here at Lord's to welcome the Australian batsman and wicketkeeper who is amongst the best specialists in Twenty20 cricket and one of the most exciting cricketers in the world - as well as being one of the nicest blokes you could ever meet (though the photo above looks bizarrely like I'm telling him and his friend off - with Stephen Fry in the green jacket busy 'tweeting').

In other exciting news Gilchrist could be joined for Middlesex's Twenty20 campaign by another friend of Lord's and all round lovely bloke Sachin Tendulkar. So watch this space!
