Born: 25th December 1933, Llanelly, Carmarthenshire Died: 2nd February 2007, aged 73 Known as: Robert Educated: Wrekin College A Brief History of Brocklesby: Our most interesting recruit, having just finished at Wrekin, he had been described by none other than the great Sir Neville Cardus, in the Times, as, "The Lindwall of Public School cricket." He ran almost from the boundary fence to bowl and was certainly pretty quick, but not all that accurate. He only took 96 wickets in the six years he was with us, but was at University a lot of the time, although he did have a high entertainment value when present. |
