Graham Gooch
Graham Gooch was the most prolific run scorer top-class cricket has ever seen. After he retired in 1997, the statistician Robert Brooke calculated that he had scored 21,087 in one-day cricket at first-class level, which added to his 44,841 first-class runs, put him ahead of Jack Hobbs. It was an amazing achievement. Currently he is England's leading test run maker with a total of 8,900 runs and 20 centuries. Graham Gooch was awarded the OBE for his services to cricket in 1991, and is coming to give an audience at the Flavel - one not to miss! He will take questions and answers afterwards.
