After Dinner Speakers: Richie Benaud, Fabiola Arredondo, Howard Wilkinson

Richie Benaud was an excellent leg break bowler, a useful middle order bat and a thoughtful captain. His batting was generally aggressive, and a stubborn streak brought out his best in difficult circumstances. A creative and successful captain, after retirement he has become one of the more respected cricket broadcasters. Richie Benaud has become the voice of cricket commentary in both England and Australia throughout the 1980s and 1990s. He has always delivered perceptive and astute comment on test match performers in the modern game. An enormously experienced sporting celebrity, with an articulate speaking delivery. A fantastically interesting guest for any occasion.
