Former New Zealand cricket captain Martin Crowe, who retired 15 years ago, is to play club cricket later this year with the aim of playing first class cricket at the age of 49.
Crowe, who made his first class debut as a 17-year-old in 1979, said yesterday he is to play for the Cornwall Cricket Club in Auckland. "I have had a lot of text messages with just one word 'why'," Crowe, who turns 49 on September 22, said. "In what is probably a bit of mid-life crisis I have come up with a solution - trying to get fit and up to speed to play a competitive game of cricket again."
