Graham Gooch | A Life in Cricket

One of the greatest English batsmen of all time, Graham Gooch steps up to the crease in Harrogate to share stories from a life in cricket and beyond. Holding the highest run-score of all time, over 67,000 runs across formats, 118 centuries and a career that spanned decades, Gooch’s achievements remain iconic.

But beyond the statistics lies a remarkable story of grit, resilience, leadership, and reinvention. Join us as Gooch reflects on the traditions that shaped him, the state of the modern game, and why the long form of cricket still matters, and delves into career highs, personal turning points, dressing room tales and what the sport means today.

Whether you’re a lifelong cricket fan or simply drawn to tales of drive and determination, this is your chance to spend an afternoon with a living legend.

Graham will be interviewed by broadcaster Matt Staddlen.
