The event will provide a highly exclusive opportunity to hear first-hand from three of Nottinghamshire and world cricket’s most interesting and successful characters, as well as a drinks reception in the historic Long Room and a four-course dinner with fine wines and coffee.
Chris Broad, whose 15-year career with Nottinghamshire and Gloucestershire saw him earn England selection on 59 occasions, continues to be involved in the world game as a match referee.
