"Graeme was born into a cricket loving family at a young age. Despite winning a contract with his native Northamptonshire, England. Swann didn't actually do anything at all relevant for long spells of his early career. Famed more for his hilarious chin than anything else, Swann had settled into the role as \"honest county pro\", before deciding to find pastures anew in Nottingham after being evicted from his flat for \"raucous banging\" (this later proved to be Swann attempting to save a cat from under some floorboards). Swann's honest county play earned him a call-up to England's ill-fated tour to South Africa in 1999, but he was sent home in disgrace after missing the team bus, flashing coach Duncan Fletcher, and not playing along and telling Ashley Giles that he was a good bowler. Swann only made one appearance, and in keeping with his career at that point, returned unremarkable figures of no wickets for 24 runs scored against."@en . .
