Curtly Ambrose In Club Cricket, Part Two: Heywood CC | Wisden
Similarly, when Curtly was minded to communicate with Fare, he referred to him not by name, or even by his nickname, Shag', says Colin Wroe, Heywood's diminutive opening batsman and short leg fielder. "He always called him the Heywood captain'. Even in the bar. Ask the Heywood captain'. Or: Heywood captain, what number am I batting?' And we didn't know him as Ambi', either. He called himself CB', which stood for Curtly Bouncer'."
