'Plum' Warner
|
|
(Pelham Warner, 1873–1963, kt 1937) Batsman for Middlesex (1894–1920) and England (1898–1912, captain 1903–6), and in his retirement a prolific writer on *cricket. He was the first to score a century in his maiden Test match, but his lasting fame in cricketing circles derives as much from a lifetime of service to the game as from his own prowess.
