Meeting 12 December - Malcolm Nash

Fifty years ago, at Swansea on 31 August 1968, Sir Garfield Sobers hit 'Six Sixes' in one six-ball over - the first player in senior cricket to achieve the feat. But who was the unlucky bowler? None other than Glamorgan all-rounder, and later captain, Malcolm Nash . Join Malcolm to relive an iconic moment in cricket history - by chance recorded for posterity by BBC Wales (watch here ); learn more about his bowling and his own feats as a big-hitter (four consecutive sixes in one over, plus the fastest-ever century in the B&H Cup); and enjoy great stories of cricket in the 60s and 70s, many featuring the all-conquering Yorkshire team of that era - Close, Trueman, Boycott, Illingworth et al.    Signed copies of Malcolm's autobiography - Not Only, But Also: My Life in Cricket (St David's Press, May 2018) - will be available .
