Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Michael James Stewart OBE is an English former cricketer, coach and administrator. He was awarded the OBE in 1998 for services to cricket. The cricket writer, Colin Bateman, commented, "a staunch patriot and the toughest of opponents, he stamped his mark on Test cricket as England's first full-time manager far more emphatically than he did as a player". Micky Stewart played first-class cricket for Surrey from 1954 to 1972, and also appeared in eight Test matches for England between 1962 and 1964. A right-handed opening batsman, Stewart averaged 35.00 with the bat in Test cricket with a highest score of 87. He was an outstanding close catcher, particularly at short leg. In 1957, he took 77 catches during the season, only one short of Walter Hammond's record. Against Northamptonshire that year, he held seven catches in an innings. It was partly for his fielding, that he was selected as one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year in their 1958 edition
