4) Bill Wyman

Bill Wyman was the famous bass guitarist of the Rolling Stones from 1962-1993 is known to be a huge admirer of the game. He has been around the game since his childhood and has continued to be close with the game ever since.

He is a very dear friend of Eric Clapton and hence is part of the Bunbury cricket club of which Eric is a huge part of. Bill has done many concerts and has played many games for the charities' fundraisers. Bill claimed that he took first ever televised hat-trick at the oval ground too.

In the same charity match, Wyman played for Bunbury XI and was found to be standing in the gully, for the catch, with a cigarette in between his index and middle finger. Later on, in the match, he had some advice for Sir Viv Richards on batting, however ironical that may seem.
