All Ten: The Ultimate Bowling Feat

217 Jack Bannister England matches for BBC on radio and television, and then for Talksport radio (while watching the game on television from his home in Brecon!). He was also cricket correspondent for the Birmingham Post for 29 years and wrote for the Wisden Cricket Monthly . No less importantly he served as secretary, chairman, and president of the Professional Cricketers’ Association, which he had set up in 1967 to look after the interests of first-class cricketers in England and Wales. Sadly in 2009 he felt compelled to sever his honorary life membership of Warwickshire because of the county’s apparent support for the England and Wales Cricket Board over its decisions regarding the sacking of the England captain and coach, Kevin Pietersen and Peter Moores, and in the Stanford affair. In later years his mobility was seriously affected by hip problems. He died in 2016 aged 85.
