Lancashire to replace John Crawley as captain

John Crawley will not be offered the Captaincy of Lancashire County Cricket Club for the 2002 Cricket Season. The General Committee of the Club took this decision in order to allow John the opportunity to recapture the form he enjoyed prior to being appointed Captain in 1999.

The Club wishes to place on record its gratitude to John during a difficult period.

A replacement will be appointed in due course.
