Lancashire's Big Switch!

Lancashire's newly made captain Glen Chappel must be delighted about the prospect of leading out his home county for the 2009 season.

Going into his 18th year with Lancs having made his first class appearance in 1992 shows a master class of commitment and loyalty.

I think that the selectors have made a great choice and his team mates will have an enormous amount of respect for him.

Taking over at 34 hopefully Chappie, known as by his team mates, still has half a dozen years left as captain if he leaves the club at 40 like predecessor Stuart Law.

What a great achievement it is for a Skipton born Lancastrian to lead out the Red Rose county at Old Trafford.

I wish him the best of luck!
