A wicket keeping cheerleader

Modern cricket is evolving at a furious pace. If you thought scantily clad cheerleaders during the Twenty20 radical – here is something unthought-of, a cheerleader as a wicketkeeper.

Prior is the epitome of the modern keeper as cheerleader and has perhaps been
more warmly welcomed in the England dressing room than by those outside it who
yearn for the more traditional talents of a Bob Taylor, Alan Knott or Jack
Russell. Or even a Chris Read.

And I always thought a wicket keeper was there to keep wickets.
