I'm sure articles and blogs about Bill Frindall's death will be popping up on cricket websites all around the world. He truly was an icon of cricket; his droll sense of humour always perfectly balanced out the school-boyish antics of his fellow TMS commentators, and even at his most gruff, he was still intensely loveable.
I used to score for my school and university cricket teams, and the 'Bearded Wonder' always did a lot to champion amateur scorers around the country. It is such a shame that this amazing man never had the chance to say goodbye, and to know how much he was loved and respected. Although he was being treated for Legionnaire's Disease, it has still come as a great shock to everybody, and all there is left to do is look back fondly on his life and career.
To coin a phrase, Thanks for the Memories
RIP xx
