"Not even Jupp rendered the county such splendid service"
Mohammad Yousuf had an extraordinary run of success on Pakistan’s 2006 tour to England
"At the crease he stood impassively, cap at a rakish angle, knees slightly bent, chewing compulsively"
"Concentration, discipline, commitment and athleticism were the abiding virtues of his game"
"He stood out as the best young captain seen since W.G. Grace in the early days of Gloucestershire"
"He could flog life from the tired limbs of his teammates at the end of the hottest day"
"One of the best amateur all-round cricketers who ever played for Warwickshire"
“He looks like a cricketer, has a cricketer’s face and wears his flannels like a cricketer”
"When he was at his best, no one was more difficult to play under conditions favourable to batting"
"5ft 5in Kallicharran hooked his towering adversary Joel Garner high over square leg for 6 with stunning power"
