Funny as it may seem, but for the first time, yesterday was the first time David Shepherd watched a Lord's Test as a spectator. Geoffrey Dean of The Times caught up with 'Shep', watching England bat, proudly sporting his bacon-and-egg MCC tie.
He admitted to popping up to the umpires’ room in the lunch break to say hello to Steve Bucknor and Simon Taufel. Bucknor, with whom he stood on many occasions.
