The windows around Canada Square were at risk when Wharfers got the chance to bat against England cricket legend Devon Malcolm.

The pace ace became a cult figure during his 40 match test career thanks to his ferocious if not always accurate bowling and his less than proficient batting technique.

A former England fast bowler is promising to "bounce some bankers," "stump some lawyers" and subject journalists to some "chin-music" in the Canary Wharf Cricket Challenge next month.

Pace ace Devon Malcolm will be bowling deliveries to those brave enough to test their cricket skills in Canada Square Park on May 19.

He has 100 centuries to his name but Mark Ramprakash might always be seen as the nearly man of English cricket.

With 33,244 first-class runs in a 20 year career, Ramprakash has been one of the heaviest scorers in the domestic game but never hit those heights in the test arena.
