Somerset's door open to Viv Richards' son, Mali

A number of members have asked Chief Executive of Somerset, Peter Anderson, whether or not Somerset are going to recruit Mali Richards, the 18-year-old son of Sir Viv Richards.

The Chief Executive said: "Following his visit to The County Ground at Taunton for indoor nets earlier this year, Peter Robinson, who was a great friend of Viv's during his playing days, is in contact with Mali, and if he wants a trial with Somerset it can be arranged."
