  • Kent County Cricketers a to Z
    Kent County Cricketers A to Z Part Two 1919-1939 By Derek Carlaw Statistics by John Winnifrith This collection of biographies have been written, on behalf of the ACS, by Derek Carlaw. For those readers wishing to obtain more detailed statistical information, it is recommended that a search is undertaken on the relevant pages of the CricketArchive website ( http://cricketarchive.com/ ). Kent County Cricketers A to Z Part Two 1919 to 1939 Introduction Part Two of the Kent A to Z covers the 92 cricketers who made their entry into first-class cricket for Kent between the wars. With 12 Championship titles, 330 wins and only 49 defeats, Yorkshire dominated throughout the two decades, but Kent could reasonably claim to be the most successful of the Southern counties, twice ending runners-up and in only three seasons failing to finish in the top half of the table. During those inter-war years, cricket was becoming increasingly professional. Of the names listed in the county averages in the 1921 Wisden, over 57% were amateurs. By 1931 the figure had fallen to 41%; and in the last pre-war season it was down to 33%. Kent, in common with one or two other counties, fought hard against the prevailing trend. Throughout the period, they stuck to their long- established policy of endeavouring to field a minimum of three amateurs in every match. In practice, they were quite frequently unable to do so, especially early in the season but, of the 92 cricketers listed in the following pages, 60, i.e. over 65%, were, in the idiom of the time, ‘Gentlemen’.

  • 2020 Yearbook Troubling Times
    Inspiring cricketers to enjoy a lifelong love of cricket 2020 YEARBOOK TROUBLING TIMES t would be irresponsible of us not to say something about the present circumstances in which we all find ourselves. In the cricket world, we have only a minority part to play: there are far more serious I issues in the wider world. With sporting events being dropped like flies it was only a matter of time before cricket joined the list of those suspended by the spread of the Coronavirus. When sports all across the world suspend their playing schedules, you know that sport is not the prime consideration. This pandemic has been spreading at an alarming rate. It’s a very contagious virus. It’s a clear case of being safe, not sorry. The cancelling of major cricket matches is a rare occurrence and casts the sport back to the dark days of the two world wars. Test matches were suspended in early 1914 and didn’t resume until late 1920 because of the First World War. The gap in competition was slightly longer during the Second World War, stretching from August 1939 until March 1946. In the early stages of this pandemic, plans were being made to cancel everything for two weeks and then see if resumption would be possible. Now, as you know, all social cricket is suspended until further notice. In addition all schools were told to close with effect from the weekend of 20 March. Our first priority is the health and safety of our members and our colleagues. Perhaps this situation will clear itself up before the end of the season: perhaps it will last into next year.

  • NWM Centurions and Near-Misses Nasim-Ul-Ghani, England V
    NWM Centurions and Near-Misses Nasim-ul-Ghani, England v Pakistan, Second Test, Lord’s, June 1962 Pakistan toured in 1962 for their second Test series in England, having drawn the first in 1954. Accustomed at home to dead turf wickets, the Pakistan players struggled. They were to win only four of their 29 tour games. However, despite generally poor results, before the Lord’s Test Pakistan surprised Yorkshire at Bradford (Yorkshire 246 and 137, Pakistan 285 and 28 for none), gaining what the Times described as a moral victory and instilling hope for Lord’s. Hopes were harboured, for different reasons, by the ground authorities. For some years, a ridge at the Nursery End had caused balls to rise nastily. From the mid-1950s bruises and chipped bones were commonplace, together with early finishes. For the Test against South Africa in 1960 the wickets were pitched a yard closer to the pavilion in an attempt to take the ridge out of play. After a lively Ashes Test in 1961, the MCC had the square inspected and decided to excavate and re-lay over the back end. They were hopeful the pitch for the Test against Pakistan in 1962 would be true. Quite apart from the damage to batsmen, early finishes to Lord’s Tests had rather harmed the bank balance. Hopes were dashed when, faced with a humid atmosphere and a green pitch, Javed Burki decided to bat. Fred Trueman and Len Coldwell enjoyed their morning, sending Pakistan in for lunch at 76 for six. Over the next day or so, England built up a first innings lead of 270 and thirty minutes before the close of play on Friday, Pakistan fell to 77 for four.

    Leo McKinstry Geoff Boycott: A Cricketing Hero «HarperCollins» McKinstry L. Geoff Boycott: A Cricketing Hero / L. McKinstry — «HarperCollins», Few modern British sportsmen have fascinated the public more than Geoff Boycott. In this first comprehensive and balanced account of Boycott’s life – fully updated to include his battle against cancer – award-winning author Leo McKinstry lifts the lid on one of cricket’s great enigmatic characters.A record-breaking Test cricketer and acerbic commentator, Geoff Boycott has never been far away from controversy during his long career in the game.Based on meticulous research and interviews with a host of players, Test captains, officials, broadcasters, friends and enemies, this definitive biography cuts through the Boycott myth to expose the truth about this charismatic, single-minded and often exasperating personality.What was Boycott like as a schoolboy? How did his England cricket colleagues such as Graham Gooch, Dennis Amiss and Brian Close feel about him as a person? Why was he so unpopular in his early career for Yorkshire? And what is the real truth about the relationships that soured his private world?From his upbringing as a miner’s son in a Yorkshire village, through highlights like his hundredth century at Headingley against Australia, to the low points such as the damaging court case in France, this warts-and-all account of his life makes for captivating reading. © McKinstry L. © HarperCollins L.

  • MCC, English Complicity and the D'oliveira Affair
    MCC, English Complicity and The D’Oliveira Affair – The Elusiveness of Truth “I come down on the side of honesty, a good honest piece of bungling by good honest men.”1 Thus did Ted Dexter, sometime England captain and one-time prospective Tory MP, famously characterise the most important selection meeting in sporting history. More recently, in the Sunday Telegraph, the political columnist Kevin Myers delivered much the same verdict, except that he described the original omission of Basil D’Oliveira from the MCC party to tour South Africa in the winter of 1968-69 as “cretinous”2. And not simply because D’Oliveira’s century and priceless final-day wicket had just helped England win the final Test to square the Ashes series. In 2003, Observer Sports Monthly named his non-selection among its “Ten Worst Sporting Decisions”. But were they all too generous? History tells us D’Oliveira was summoned as a replacement for the supposedly injured Tom Cartwright three weeks after that selection meeting, whereupon Prime Minister John Vorster denounced the party as “the team of the Anti-Apartheid Movement” and MCC cancelled the tour, fuelling the sports boycott that ultimately did so much to bring down the most despicable regime of modern times. Not for nothing would Nelson Mandela convey his hearfelt thanks to “Dolly”. It is remarkable that no film producer has yet sought to bring this classic political espionage thriller to the screen – the chief protagonists of which will be on the screen behind me. Even more than Bodyline, this is assuredly the cricketing tale that demands to be filmed.
