Lookalikes

There's not much cricket news about at the moment, so inspired by the pairing of Richie Benaud and Yoda (see previous posts) I thought I would invite you to send in other cricketers masquerading in unfamiliar settings. How about Tony Lewis (left) and Derek Nimmo?

Will, a frequent correspondent to this blog, also suggests an uncanny similarity between John Buchanan, the Australia coach, and Ned Flanders, neighbour of The Simpsons (TM, picture copyright of Twentienth Century Fox Film Corporation etc etc)
