Stephen Fry, a lifelong cricket supporter and MCC Foundation Patron, delivered the 2021 MCC Cowdrey Lecture at Lord's Cricket Ground.

The prestigious Lecture, which embodies the Spirit of Cricket, returned after a hiatus in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Fry was the 20th speaker and the second non-cricketing personality to deliver the oration, following Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s memorable, impassioned contribution in 2008.

Fry is best known for his work on screen as an award-winning and renowned actor, host and presenter. He is also a bestselling author, with works including four novels and three volumes of autobiography. Stephen is also an advocate for mental health and is President of Mind, the mental health charity.

MCC President Clare Connor and England cricketer Kate Cross formed part of a panel discussion with Fry, which was hosted by broadcaster Mark Nicholas and followed the Lecture.
