article: An all-rounder with no forearms, a batsman who rarely leaves his home and the youngster who has had his life transformed by cricket. BBC Kick Off reporter Josef Rindl met the Warwickshire disability cricket team preparing to take on England. "Boot it," shouts 18-year-old Joe Glaze, as a broad smile stretches across his face before what is just his third match for Warwickshire Super9's disability cricket team. After facing Derbyshire, his next could be against England's physical disability team at home in the Midlands on Sunday, 30 July. Glaze was only introduced to the game three months earlier, having attended a cricket festival at his special needs school. He suffers from a rare genetic disorder and is also on the autistic spectrum. Joe's father, Andy, has quickly got involved as an assistant coach and is an avid photographer from the sidelines. "Sport teaches you life skills," Andy told BBC Sport. "It teaches you teamwork, discipline, but most importantly social skills. It is all ideal for someone like Joe." Glaze runs towards his father and screams excitedly: "10, 10, Dad I'm batting at 10." "Three months ago he couldn't hold a bat," Andy recalled. "Now he's the only batsman I've seen who runs from the clubhouse to the crease." Recounting the first time his son picked up the bat, Andy continued: "We were in a school sports hall and he hit the ball down the length of the hall and through an open corridor - it remains one of my happiest moments in cricket. "I just had to get involved. For the kids here, (the Super9's) is brilliant." For some, the match against Derbyshire represented their last chance to impress ahead of England's visit, with two players in the squad on the fringes of national selection. Charlie Pestridge, the captain, is one of them. He is a batsman, a bowler and against Derbyshire, because nobody else is available, a stand-in wicketkeeper. Pestridge, who has cerebral palsy, said it took him about six months to even find a disability team. "It's that hidden," he said. "I'm glad I discovered the team. It's great to be able to see people play who wouldn't usually have been given a chance." The match, played at the picturesque Alcester and Ragley Cricket Club, has all the hallmarks of the traditional village cricket game; cars parked around the boundary, spectators construct a gazebo and small children hide under the mobile covers. Pestridge, 20, is now on the cusp of the national team, regularly attending a training centre in Northampton. He hopes to earn England selection for next year's tri-series tournament against Australia and South Africa. To do so, Pestridge has to juggle a busy schedule. He studies mathematics at Bath University and featuring for Warwickshire in their Midlands Group game against Derbyshire means an 180-mile round trip. "Right now I'm not sure whether to prioritise the degree or aim towards representing my country," he admitted. "I'd love to play for England." There are three England disability sides, representing the visually impaired, learning and physical disabilities. Both the learning and
