Hegg appointed Lancashire captain Media Release - 30 October 2001
Lancashire County Cricket Club are delighted to announce the appointment of Warren Hegg as Captain for the 2002 cricket season. The decision was made at a meeting of the Club's General Committee last night. Hegg, who has been selected as one of England's two wicket-keepers for the Test Match Tours to India and New Zealand was delighted at the news. Speaking from his home, Hegg said: "This is great news, particularly after my selection for England this winter. There is a great team spirit at Lancashire and with our blend of youth and experience, I am looking forward to working with our new Cricket Manager Mike Watkinson and getting the Club back to the winning ways we experienced throughout the 1990s." Club Chairman Jack Simmons added: "Warren is a Lancastrian through and through and is a true 100 percenter. I cannot think of a more enthusiastic cricketer and I feel sure his positive influence on the team will reflect in the team's performances." Hegg, 33, is Lancashire's first official wicket-keeper/captain in the history of the Club. © Lancashire CCC
