As happens with such interviews, though, there is always a question you later wish you'd asked but didn't. For me that question was: "Why do you continue to care about cricket?" After all, the late John Arlott once said of Brearley that he understands, in the greater scheme of things, it doesn't really matter.
Perhaps the answer to the unasked question might have been this: "We all look for things to give meaning to life and sometimes they can even be found in a game." - Tim Lane, SMH (2015)

Please update the record in main clause list. Curtly was picked as the part of hat-trick and not for playing in Wi, Eng, Australia...
No this isn't allowed. You can't edit the clause after others have made draft picks. That was specifically mentioned in the build-up to the draft.
Eds, I had made the change when I picked Curtly. I didnt change it today...
