Eric Clapton swaps: Eric Clapton electric guitar for cricket bat


Eric Clapton brandished a cricket bat instead of a Fender Stratocaster to play a charity match this week.
Eric Clapton XI the rock story assembled, which featured other musicians such as Steve Crook of Juliet The Sun, to play Bunbury Cricket Club.
Speaking to the Sun, Crook revealed that he took the chance to ask the former Cream electric guitar player for tips on how to progress in the music business.
He commented, "He put us in contact with his legendary former manager David English, who's been helping to guide our career".
Crook added that in comeback, Clapton he offered a few tips on how to improve his game of cricket, in special his forward defensive stroke.
The rock story obviously got 15 runs after being given this little bit of advice.
This comes after former Rolling Stones bass guitar player Bill Wyman took part in one of Clapton's charity cricket matches in the summer.
