December 30 must be Joe Root, doubt we'll get 8 but perhaps Colin Graves might want to know why if he doesn't make himself available.
Jan 1 is Yash Vagadia.

Phil Sharpe as the hockey player, unless there's a modern example, and you might describe Yash Vagadia as a Newcastle Brown, sort of - strong stuff.

Yes Phil Sharpe We hope Yash V is made of the strong stuff that makes county cricketers but hopefully not international for some time David Byas played hockey I believe |

Up in t' middle o' t' night. Nowt better to do?
I presume Jan 3 is Josh Shaw, but didn't know he had left Gloucs.
Back to bed, now, with a wee dram Bunnahabhain - easy for you to say.

Dec 26 must be Bob Platt, big inswingers at around Patto-pace, with Binks standing up. Very watchable. Hairstyle indeed.
Ah, I had misunderstood the Northants and Shaw question. You are looking for two different players. So the other must indeed be my old favourite Ben Sanderson, at Northants, with Shaw still at Gloucs, the son of former seamer Chris. I had no idea where, in Yorkshire, either originated.

4 Jan must be Jack Geloven, or Jack van Geloven as he became known. I can't say I ever saw him play but I certainly remember him in his umpiring days.

I think I saw van Geloven playing against my dad for Lidgett Green in the Bradford League. I remember him only for his exotic name on the scorecard.
