Puttivat 'Parn' Poshyanonda, 54, is a legend in Thai cricket. The first cricketer of Thai descent to play cricket in Bangkok, he created the Thai Cricket Club in 1983 to represent the cricket of Thais, while also playing football and rugby for Thailand. In an interview on the Asian Cricket Council website he goes down memory lane and speaks of his big plans for Thai cricket.
I was keeping wicket and didn’t sight the ball out of the trees and was hit in the face. I’d come up from Bangkok that morning and I hadn’t packed a toothbrush, so had asked my wife at the start of the match to kindly go and get one for later. When she came back, waving the toothbrush, it was too late.
