CRICKET icon Graeme Swann handed a debut England Test cap to young cricketer Ralphie Albert on Sunday – the grandson of Snooker legend Jimmy White.

White took to X to celebrate the moment with an image of the cap’s exchange taking place.

He was delighted for his grandson, who received the cap following his appearance for England U19s on Sunday.

The six-time world championship runner-up captioned the post: “Proud day as my grandson Ralphie gets his first England cap for the under 21’s from Graeme Swann.”

Albert took 3/95 on the first day of his squad’s first Test against India U19s in Beckenham.

Just 17 years old, Albert plays his county cricket as part of Surrey’s academy.

The left-arm spinner received his cap from Swann, an England cricket icon with 255 wickets to his name in 60 Test appearances.

Swann bowled a right-arm off-break for England, Nottinghamshire and his native Northamptonshire between 1998-2013

A big character, Swann was more recently seen on the national stage on Strictly Come Dancing, where he finished seventh.

Snooker star White is also branching out from his day job.

The much-loved potter still plays and has been given a tour card for another year by snooker supremo Barry Hearn

But the Londoner is also set to go up against old rival Steve Davis in a completely different field.

The pair are set to go head to head in a DJ clash next month at a music festival where an England football legend will also be on the bill.

The 63-year-old, nicknamed ‘the whirlwind,’ still plays professional snooker, but was relegated from the World Snooker Tour earlier this year due to his results.
