‘An absolute legend’

Tribute0 Comments

Matthews recalls Rice:

He was one of those captains who got the best out of every single person who was in his team. It was just a great honour to have the opportunity right at the end of his career to play under him on that iconic tour of India. He was just an absolute legend. He played the game hard and was always very fair…Unfortunately he never had the opportunity at the height of his career to play on the international stage, because he would have been one of the great all-rounders the world had seen.

'Cricket during Clive Rice's time was of the highest level'
