Bath Rugby have named a squad packed with household names for next week's charity cricket clash with Bath Buccaneers.

The Twenty20 match, which will raise funds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer, takes place at North Parade on Wednesday night (5.45pm).

The Bath Rugby Legends team will be selected from a 14-man player pool that includes established first-teamers Nick Abendanon, Michael Claassens, Pieter Dixon and Jack Cuthbert, new boys Dan Hipkiss and Charlie Beech, coaches Brad Davis and Martin Haag, newly-appointed club president David Trick and England's most capped full-back, Matt Perry.

They will take on a Buccaneers side representing Bath CC in a match being organised by 3rd XI player Dave Nelson.

In keeping with the theme of the day, the ball and stumps will be pink, as will the shirts which have been provided by main sponsor John Moore Sports in Argyle Street. Bristol-based Ayrtek Cricket have made a pink cricket helmet especially for the match.
