Lewis still enjoys his days in the sun

It is ten years since Chris Lewis played the last of his 32 Tests and six since he retired from the county game. The broad smile and lean frame are still there, but so is the enigma. In The Times, Patrick Kidd caught up with a man who feels he was forced out of the game, and who was once labelled by The Sun as "The Prat Without The Hat".

“I could have done better, that’s no great admission. But putting it in perspective, I think of me as a five-year-old kid in Guyana dreaming of playing any sort of cricket and I did better than that. Even just pulling on an England shirt was an achievement.”
