Great wicket keeper
YOUR article regarding the signing of Michael Bates as Wiltshire wicket keeper for the 2015 season seriously underplayed the importance of this acquisition.
Michael Bates is probably the best wicket keeper in the county. His inability to hold down a batting position at 7 with Hampshire was held against him.
Well done Wiltshire, a good year to be a spinner in the Wiltshire team.
