On consultation with my father :p, I think the author is Norman Gale

Unsure about the book
Well done to your dad and you Burkey :D

I think it is from a book called Cricket Songs, I think there may be two volumes though?

Thanks Archie ... also, I read your article about Gilly. Good stuff !
Thanks Burkey, you are never sure if anyone reads the front page of CW. I never realised how much work is done behind the scenes. :wacko:

I think your answer is right (95% sure), so you should ask the next Q :)

Minoo Mankad and Wilfred Rhodes have this in common. What is it?

Who am I ?

I am the English captain who beat Archie MacLaren's record for the highest score by an English captain in Australia.
