About this listen

 In this special episode, recorded live at North Runcton Cricket Club on 22 October, host Stephen Wallis is joined by a true trailblazer of the game former England international Roland Butcher, the first Black cricketer ever to represent England. Stephen delves into Roland’s remarkable new autobiography Breaking Barriers: Barbados to England …and Back, exploring his early life in Barbados, his move to England at just 13, his rise through Middlesex CCC, and the moment he stepped onto the field for his England Test debut. Roland also reflects on his return to Barbados after cricket and the powerful life lessons that have shaped who he is today. Plus, we’re joined by Dr. Sasha Sutherland, co-author of Breaking Barriers, for further insight into this extraordinary story.
