Phil Tufnell : What a legend!

March 10, 2006

English pie bowler, legend, bad boy of English cricket in the 90s, Aussie Basher, star of the the DVD Tuffers’ Duffers, winner of television show I’m a celebrity, key spinner and no. 11 of the Awkward XI, widely know as The Cat for his dressing room naps (I will not use the word ’sleeping’ here to avoid tarnishing the name of the legend) has added one more chapter to his legacy.

Tuffers will captain the English Celebrity XI to tour India to raise money for charity. Reports cricinfo:

A celebrity cricket team - comprising such luminaries as Phil Tufnell, Jack Russell and Harry Judd, the drummer from the pop group, McFly - has set off for India to take on the stars of Bollywood and raise money for Sport Relief… In 2004, Sport Relief raised £16.5m, and the team members will be able to witness at first hand how the money is being spent. This year’s event will take place on July 15.

  1. Ha, i wouldn’t exactly call Jack Russel a celebrity, but this is great.

    Is there going to be any TV coverage in India?

  2. Ya Jack Russell was a brilliant keeper and is now a very good painter apparently. You have to do much more off the cricket field than on it to be a celebrity - like Tuffers.

    I hope and would be delighted if there was coverage of this Tom. Not aware if there will be though.
