    Actually forgotten I'd seen Khan and Dev play too Think Imran might even squeeze McGrath out of my team
    LOL! That's where I saw him, too. I remember thinking 'How come this little Indian chap is playing the fearsome Marshall as if he's all the time in the world, when our players are being ripped apart by him?

    The answer, of course, was that he was much, much better than them.

    I remember Imran's knock in that game, too. Who would have thought he'd end up being Prime Minister of Pakistan, eh?

    Famously so, as I recall. He cut a romantic swathe through the upper echelons of London society by all accounts.

    This was where I saw Sobers play, btw. I would have been somewhere behind them in the Members' stand with my dad.
