Henry Olonga...

Former Zimbabwean test cricketer became the youngest player to represent Zimbabwe in 1995. He helped them to their first ever Test victory in that game. A right arm fast bowler, he was the first black cricketer to play for Zimbabwe.
Henry Olonga achieved world prominence (along with team mate Andy Flower) in 2003 by wearing a black armband in a Cricket World Cup match to protest against the policies of Zimbabwe's government, led by Robert Mugabe. This led to a warrant for Olonga's arrest on charges of treason (which carries the death penalty in Zimbabwe) and forced him to retire from international cricket and temporarily go into hiding.
He also has a superb voice gaining leading roles in productions such as the Gondoliers, Annie Get Your Gun, and Joseph and his Technicolor Dream-coat.
Come and hear his amazing story and how his faith in Jesus has sustained him on

You should go to that one Smerky. £15pp is a bargain.
Introduce yourself & tell him about Flaming Bails. He might join up & spread the word during his commentary. I'm sure he will be impressed particularly with his buddy Henry Nolonga.
Plus you get to find out about Jesus
....... and Joseph
............ and his Technicolour Dream-coat.
Win, Win, Win

Smerkles I think you owe it to Flaming Bails to go along and ask the eternal question "so this Jesus bloke, how does he compare to Flintoff?"
Henry would be well qualified
