Angus Fraser wore the mantle of Middlesex’s seam spearhead with distinction for several years – as did Tim Murtagh. And in more recent years, so has Toby Roland-Jones.
About to begin his 17th season with the Seaxes, Roland-Jones has amassed more than 800 wickets across all formats and remains one of the domestic game’s ultra-reliable opening bowlers.
And yet – he is now 38 and the Middle must soon start pencilling in someone younger to take over, in due course, as the long-term leader of their pace attack.
