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:
“An indirect quotation we can usually expect to rate only as better or worse, more or less faithful, and we cannot even hope for a strict standard of more and less; what is involved is evaluation, relative to special purposes, of an essentially dramatic act.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
