Confirmation has been received today that Courtney Walsh will be included in the Lashings All Star XI playing against a Gloucestershire Invitation XI at the County Ground, Bristol on Sunday 11 August.

Gloucestershire are absolutely delighted that Courtney has agreed to turn out for this fixture and hope that members and supporters past and present will come along to welcome him.

Amongst other stars playing for Lashings, Shoaib Akhtar is reported to be bowling even faster than ever and should add even further to the excitement of this fast moving new cricketing concept.

Two 20 over games will be played, the first commencing at 12 noon.
