Well done the ECB for naming the trophy after the big man. Ironically once he became an England regular he didn't play too much county cricket, but has the game ever produced a greater tryer. As a Warwickshire man I never once saw him going through the motions, even when he was clearly hampered by injury, which was pretty often. It's just a shame people have to die to be recognised.
