Starting for Sussex as an off-break bowler before the first world war, his career did not really get under way for nearly a decade and he was thinking of giving up bowling when one day in 1922 he bowled a few faster balls in the nets to his captain, Arthur Gilligan, and knocked over his stumps. ❋ Stephen Bates (2010)

He waited and waited some more for an over-pitched off-break from Graeme Swann, so that he could punch it past the left hand of extra cover with the minimum of effort and the maximum of power. ❋ Andy Bull (2011)
