E-BLAST - THURS 29 NOV 2018

Mark's last tour as the Australian cricket team chaplain in March 2000 to New Zealand. This photo was taken in Hamilton with Justin Langer, who is now, 18 years later the Australian cricket team coach. Tomorrow Frid 30 Nov after 18 years is the "final" Life After Cricket bi-annual Retired Australian Cricketers Newsletter which is distributed to the cricketers by the States. An end of an era, 17 years as team chaplain, now 18 years further on. Life After Cricket was initiated when Rev Barrie Sutton and I met with the ACB and then later Tim May CEO of the cricketers association in Nov 2000. The Salvation Army's David Goodwin the former WarCry editor is becoming the link person to cricketer respite. David is one of our 5 sport writers and a cricket tragic.
