About this episode
This episode sees us speaking with opening batsman Andy Lloyd.
Andy had an excellent first-class career, latterly as Warwickshire captain, and scored more than 17,000 first-class runs, but perhaps he's best known for his one Test appearance, against the mighty West Indies side of 1984, and how it ended prematurely for him because of a horrendous incident after just half an hour's play.
The story of that incident takes up a great deal of this podcast, as you'd expect, but over the course of the episode Andy also puts his Test call-up into context and discusses how he rebuilt his career at first-class level, all the while knowing he could never play for England again. It's a tale that is, at stages, sad, poignant and redemptive - and it's always fascinating!
