Monty Panesar to play first home match for Twickenham on the green

By The Editor

13th Aug 2021 | Local Sport

Tomorrow Twickenham CC will take on Teddington CC in what will be Monty Panesar's home debut.

The match will take place on on Twickenham Green at 11am (weather dependent!).

It follows the team's victory over Teddington on 6 May.

Panesar is playing for the team while studying an MA in International Sports Journalism at St Mary's University in Twickenham.

He plans to become a broadcast sports journalist after graduating.

He is also helping to develop junior cricketers at Twickenham CC, helping out with coaching and player development as well as trying to bring more people in and around TW2 into the game.

Panesar, "one of England's finest spinners", has 167 test wickets and is widely known for his dazzling dismissal of Sachin Tendulkar in 2012, and a famous last stand against Australia in Cardiff in 2009.
