Rikki Clarke resigns Derbyshire captaincy
Bowled on August 13th, 2008 by King Cricket
Even by our knee-high standards Rikki Clarke’s selection as ‘one to watch’ has been ill-judged.
He has been worth watching in a faintly soap opera kind of way, we suppose. It’s one thing to play badly (in the second division), it’s another to resign the captaincy, but it’s really going some to drop yourself - which is what Rikki did at one point this season.
We’ll discard him for next season and he’ll turn into Don Bradman and Waqar Younis’s bastard offspring, just you watch.

He really isnt that ugly.
Maybe not by Australian standards…
