"The
fact that you worked with a script you only received on the day and
were expected to largely fly by the seat of your pants with celebrity
players walking to centre-wicket and keep the crowd amused all at once
is testimony to your confidence, ability and intelligence. It was a
pleasure working with someone so competent."
