The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has set a Bank Holiday Beard Challenge for Test Match Special commentators.

The challenge comes after former Australian coach Darren Lehmann appeared on TMS on Saturday afternoon and a photograph showed that in a long overdue attempt to find gravitas he has grown a beard.

The BLF says that while TMS commentators already have gravitas a beard can always provide more.

Geoffrey Boycott has briefly worn a beard some decades ago while in 2018 a photo-shopped image depicted cricket correspondent Jonathan Agnew with a beard. Michael Vaughan by contrast is thought never to have a beard.

BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Darren Lehmann has thrown down a beard challenge to TMS commentators. Who will take it up?
