Graeme Hick scored his first hundred 33 years ago. He was six years old in what was then Salisbury, Rhodesia. Tipped to scale great heights - 'He could become the most prolific batsman since the great Don Bradman,' said one top cricket writer long before he was picked for England - Hick failed to live up to expectations. Looking back, says Hick in this revealing interview to Kevin Mitchell in The Guardian ahead of his final season, he has no regrets.
