Adam Hollioake at The Oval today

I was looking at the Surrey CCC twitter stuff earlier today and it shows a picture of Adam Hollioake visiting his brother's learning centre at the Oval to help children. I don't know whether anyone else has seen it but when I first saw the picture, I had no idea that one of the adults in the photo was AH! Without meaning to sound at all unkind, AH seems to have certainly put on quite a lot of timber; he is looking more like a long-time retired rugby prop forward than a fantastic cricket all-rounder. I have such a lot of wonderful memories watching that great Surrey team, led superbly by AH, that won 3 CCs in 4 years around the millenium. It is difficult to see him in any other way. His brother of course was probably an even more naturally gifted cricketer.
