Dickie Bird was one of the most famous characters in world sport, loved by millions across the globe. Simon Hughes and Simon Mann pay tribute to his wonderful persona on and off the cricket field. They discuss why he was so cherished and admired, even when presented with the most bizarre things in the middle, where he officiated with humility and humour for almost three decades. In part 2 they also analyse England's Ashes squad which was announced earlier today. #cricket #umpire #ashes Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
