Bill Frindall R.I.P.

I am extremely sad tonight to hear of the death of the great cricket scorer and statistician Bill Frindall, 'The Bearded Wonder'.
.
Just over a week ago I received a old scorebook direct from Bill Frindall. In the spirit of the man, it was signed by him and personally addressed to me. I can't believe that a few days later he's no longer with us.

R.I.P.
