I read about him in 10 Great Bowlers which I had seen recommended on the Cricket Books thread. What a great player - and how amazing that he should have learned his cricket, and mostly played it, in the States.

Did the match involve Javed Miandad?

I think I know the match in question - I was just buying some time while I summoned up the name of the Derbyshire pair. The Bestwicks, I think it was. Early 1920s ... I haven't found the reference to the match I was looking for, so if you'd be so good as to remind me ...
