IT’S NOT every day you get to bowl at a former England cricket captain but one group of Isle of Dogs children had exactly that this week.

Children from Seven Mills primary school, in Millwall, tested the skills of Mike Gatting when he visited the school on Tuesday as part of the first Chance To Shine national cricket day. The focus was on The Big Run Chase and Gatting, 50, was delighted to do his bit.

He said: “We’re trying to encourage children all over the country, from around 500 schools, to join in and see how many singles they can run to see if we can get a million runs.
