Any further comments are more than welcome.

This article is about a rather arrogant but massively talented cricketer who had a dispute with the authorities and dropped out of the
England team. Not KP, but Jack Crawford who played in the first two decades of the 20th century. A somewhat forgotten story but an interesting one. This article has

One thing has been niggling at me for a couple of days. At one point we say about Lord
Alverstone: "Starting in 1909, he left out several professionals." As not only the president of the club but also the Lord Chief Justice, he was obviously very influential, but did he have quite the dictatorial

Did the rumours about becoming a farmer say he was going to become a rancher in
Australia or go back to England to do it? (or elsewhere?)
