Outlaws opener and World Cup winner Alex Hales is amongst six names added to the bill for the opening dinner of Luke Fletcher's Testimonial Year, which will take place at Trent Bridge on Friday 24 February.
Hales, who broke into the Nottinghamshire setup alongside Fletcher in the late noughties, will be joined by a host of familiar faces from the local sporting scene and beyond.
Those include Mansfield Town manager and Nottingham Forest legend Nigel Clough, former Forest defender Steve Chettle, Paralympic champion Richard Whitehead MBE and Premier League referee David Coote.
Radio X presenter and host of the Zero Ducks Given podcast, Toby Tarrant, will also join Fletcher at the event, which will be compered by England and Notts spin-bowling icon Graeme Swann.
A portion of proceeds from Luke’s testimonial events will support his chosen charities; PASIC, The Trent Bridge Community Trust and The Professional Cricketers’ Trust.
Tickets are on sale now from Luke’s official testimonial website https://www.lf23.co.uk/shop/events
