Just read the very sad news that "Gary" Sobers has dield at the age of 89. A great cricketer and a great ambassador for the island of Barbados.

The greatest all round cricketer that I have ever seen.
Sad news. Unquestionably the best all-rounder. I remember watching him bowl to Keith Fletcher in one of the Rest of the World versus England matches at Edgbaston. Fletcher couldn't lay a bat on it and I wondered how anyone ever scored runs at Test level. I could go on for ages, he was very special.
And a friend to the Bethell family so an influence on young Jacob.
