Nearly released by Spurs. Now a Ballon d’Or winner. 🏆 Harry Kane’s journey reminds us that being the teenage standout isn’t the only route to greatness. Thoughts on persistence, potential, and that Mexico interview 😂 Who’s your favourite sporting late developer? #Kane #football #Spurs #Bayern

924 Test wickets in this photo… and most importantly, a hundred in 4th XI cricket 😂 Seven seasons with Lashings World now. This summer meant a little more - our first full season without Scott Charlton, who gave me my first opportunity back in 2019 and became a friend. Already excited for 2027 👀🏏
