My former colleague Jack Bannister died in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Jack was a professional cricketer for Warwickshire during the 1950's and 60's before becoming a leading journalist and voice on the game.
He had been talkSPORT's cricket correspondent for 15 years and was someone I listened and observed from close quarters for many years.
I posted this tribute to him on the talkSPORT website.
RIP Jack.
