  • 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’.

The sequence of events of the infamous bodyline series are too well known to recount in detail, but what’s of interest is how the ethical foundations of the game cracked all too easily. Following the evangelical revival in early 19th-century Britain, the cult of athleticism took root in its elite public schools from 1850 onwards, with physical exercise turned into a moral virtue. According to historian Jeffrey Richards, the whole ethos of athleticism could be summed up in three words – ‘play the game’ – which meant abiding by the spirit of the game, as well as the laws, so as not to gain an unfair advantage over an opponent.

  • VW 18 Numbered
    The Virtual Wisdener No 18, August 10th 2020. The Newsletter of the Wisden Collectors’ Club ome of you may well be asking ‘Pray tell, Young Bill, why is there a photograph of a Cornish S pas<e on the front cover of this edi<on of The Virtual Wisdener?’ And, it is a good ques<on that needs answering. Abbey, the eldest and joint most-expensive of the Furmedge off-spring was 23 recently and we took a trip to Blenheim Palace and although the actual Palace was closed, the grounds and a lovely cafe were open. The cafe had me hooked as soon as I saw ‘Cornish pas<es” were on sale. Now, I know that most of you view me as this excep<onally fit and handsome man in the prime of his life, but I will confess to a slight addic<on to Cornish pas<es - (is that why Bill is pu.ng Cornish with a Capital le5er?) And during the ongoing pandemic it has not been possible to feed my addic<on. In fact, I am reliably told by people who know that geSng illegal drugs would have probably been easier. Actually, no one said that, but I am using the same ‘wri<ng license’ oTen seen in the daily newspapers. Anyway, I digress. The Cornish pas<e at the Blenheim Palace cafe was delicious. Lorraine wearing her fitness and her ‘Billy needs to be alive as long as possible’ head, forbade me using the strongest language possible from geng a second one and, almost sarcas<cally, suggested that I go online, on ’t’internet, to see if I could order some for home delivery.

  • 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.

  • Yorkshire Star Teams
    Yorkshire Star Teams There have been many stellar performances by Yorkshire cricketers since the club’s formation in 1863 but can cricketing success be ruled by the stars? The Yorkshire CCC Handbook lists 673 players who have represented the county in first class cricket (or its equivalent) and below are the 12 teams that have been selected based on each player’s star sign. There are some really interesting combinations. The teams have been selected taking into account career records for Yorkshire but also careers with other clubs and on the international stage taking into account that modern day players get the opportunity to play in many fewer County Championship matches than their predecessors. The squads are between 11 and 13 players – the reader can select their XI and determine the batting order.
