WHEN YOU'RE OUT, YOU'RE IN AND WHEN YOU'RE IN, YOU'RE OUT

News that Alex Stewart is to retire from test cricket at the end of the South Africa series this summer: and I've got tickets for the first day of the Fifth Test!

Translation for our American readers: English all-star cricketer Al Stewart is hanging up his cleats after 20 years on the England Lions roster. Stewart, the current England catcher, also plays (occasionally!) for the Surrey franchise. His last game for the Lions will be against the South Africa Proteas All-Stars at the Oval Stadium in South London, Stewart's home field, on September 4-8.

Think Gary Carter.
