New photo Worcestershire Rapids starlet Pat Brown tempted by T20 riches

Pat Brown is the final-year business studies student ready to put his education on hold if the world's Twenty20 leagues come calling this winter.

Brown, 20, belied the fact he was the youngest player appearing at finals day to bamboozle opposing batsmen with his deceptive arts as Worcestershire — 33-1 outsiders at the start of the tournament — were deservedly crowned Vitality Blast champions on Saturday night.

In the 16 seasons of the competition only Alfonso Thomas, with 33 in 2010, has taken more wickets than Brown's 31 this year. His captain Moeen Ali had no hesitation in dubbing him 'international standard' after Sussex were defeated by five wickets at Edgbaston.

'I think I'll tell them I might not be there for a few lectures,' the City of Worcester University undergraduate said, of the prospect of an overseas franchise deal.

'It's a real good platform to get noticed and hopefully I have.'

The beauty of Brown's art is its simplicity. He insists his variations number just two — a knuckle ball and a reduced pace off-cutter — although a slippery bouncer means batsmen cannot take liberties.

'One of the things I've tried to do is let someone whack me before I change what i do. There's no point me tryng to bowl five different deliveries an over because not many people in the world can do that and execute all five,' he added.

'Gut feel has worked well for me this year. I've bowled the right ball at the right time. In 17 games I've not had a single dropped catch off my bowling, and so I have counted my lucky stars.'

In the absence of overseas batters Callum Ferguson and Martin Guptill, the Rapids' finals-day runs came in the form of a pair of 41s from Moeen and two man-of-the-match innings from Ben Cox.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
