Martin Crowe recalled in 2011: “A former county pro, Les Townsend, was once watching dad play at Cornwall and told him harshly ‘You’ll never make a Test cricketer, son’. About 30 years later, dad met up with him again by chance and said: ‘Les, remember when you told me I’d never make a Test cricketer? Well, I made two!"[4]
