The London 2012 Olympics brought the nation to a standstill - and a ten-year-old Toby Albert was lucky enough to have a ringside seat.
Hampshire's Mr Versatile returned to the county's white ball side for the final match of the Metro Bank One Day Cup against Gloucestershire in Bristol on Tuesday.
He had spent much of the previous month patiently trying to force his way into the Southern Brave's plans in the Hundred.
