Nice find yesterday "Howzat"!

I picked this gem up yesterday for a £1 in a local charity shop. "From the far pavillion" signed and dedicated by the former Lancashire and Indian wicket keeper Farokh Engineer. this will sit well with the Mike Atherton and Ian Austin signed books who also played for the Red Rose county that I found earlier this year.

Farokh Maneksha Engineer (born 25 February 1938, in Mumbai) is a former Indian cricketer of Parsi background who played 46 Tests for India and played first-class cricket for Mumbai in India and Lancashirein England. Engineer's active international career started in 1961 and continued to 1975, and he was India's first-choice wicket-keeper for most of that period. He was also a highly useful, stylish and very aggressive batsman. He is currently a referee in the Indian Premier League.

 

"He who Dares" in this game.
