Grant Flower - Return To International Cricket

Return To International Cricket

Following another fine season for Essex which turned out to be his last season of county cricket, Grant Flower was handed a shock recall to the Zimbabwe team for the tour of South Africa. He is expected to combine playing duties with his role of batting coach of the national side and could be in contention to play in the 2011 Cricket World Cup to be held in India. He made his international return in October 2010 the first ODI of a three-match series vs South Africa.

Famous quotes containing the words return to, return and/or cricket:

    The house waited on your private beach
    each day,
    when you had the time to return to her.
    And you so often had the time,
    even when fury blew out her chimney,
    even when love lifted the shingles....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Yet I shall never return to the past, that attic.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The thing that struck me forcefully was the feeling of great age about the place. Standing on that old parade ground, which is now a cricket field, I could feel the dead generations crowding me. Here was the oldest settlement of freedmen in the Western world, no doubt. Men who had thrown off the bands of slavery by their own courage and ingenuity. The courage and daring of the Maroons strike like a purple beam across the history of Jamaica.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
