For some people, age is just a number!

Former Scottish cricketer Alex Steele who made his debut for Scotland way back in 1967 against English county side Lancashire has appeared in one of the videos doing the rounds on the internet where the 83-year-old is seen keeping wickets with an oxygen cylinder on his back.

 

 

Steele has been suffering from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a terminal respiratory disease, since 2020. However, that doesn't stop him from appearing in matches for Forfarshire Cricket Club.
