Lucas ("Luuk") Petrus van Troost (born 28 December 1969 in Schiedam, Zuid-Holland) is a former Dutch cricketer, who captained the national team. He usually batted between no. 6 and no. 8 in the order, and when in form scored quickly with his hard hitting, while his bowling was relatively rarely called upon but provides a handy option where required.
His brother Andre also played for the Netherlands, as well as for Somerset.
Famous quotes containing the word van:
“Mrs. Van Daan’s grizzling is absolutely unbearable; now she can’t any longer drive us crazy over the invasion, she nags us the whole day long about the bad weather. It really would be nice to dump her in a bucket of cold water and put her up in the loft.”
—Anne Frank (1929–1945)
