Gary Sobers and 12 fingers.....




Garry Sobers was actually born with six fingers on each hand. In his 2002 autobiography, in a chapter called "Twelve-fingered symphony", Sobers wrote:

 "The other kids would say I was so good at cricket because I had six fingers on each hand ... the first extra finger fell off quite early, when I was about nine or ten, and I played my first colonial game with 11 fingers! I took the second off when I was 14 or 15 and playing serious cricket."
