			<link>http://thevictortrumpercricketboard.yuku.com/topic/9101/t/Bowling-Keepers.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Somewhere on this board there was a thread regarding all-rounders, people opening the batting and bowling in both innings, and captaining etc etc.
<br>
<br>
Within it was a list of keepers who had opened the bowling in Tests (IIRC Walcott, Warren Lees, Kirmani and a couple of others. Kunderan opened when not
designated keeper). Also a list of designated keepers who took wickets.
<br>
<br>
One of the oddities to be thrown up was that Andrew Hall was the only designated keeper to have bowled in... ]]></description>

<br>
Pocketed. Ouch.
<br>
<br>
Only thing like this I can remember is a catch in the 2003-04 VB series where Parthiv Patel flubbed yet another catch - but the ball fell into the gap between
the top of his pad and his thigh and lodged there.

			<description><![CDATA[ Lord MacLaurin&#39;s reign as chairman of the ECB from 1997 to 2002 is generally considered a positive one and with good reason. Initiatives like central
contracts and two-division County cricket were introduced during his tenure and have widely perceived to be successful and helping the resurgence of English
cricket this decade.

However, not all suggestions he put forward came through or were warmly received... as this 1997 edition of Wisden Cricket Monthly shows with regards to... ]]></description>
