Famous Cricketers No 80 - E.G.Wynyard

1909/10 - MCC in South Africa Quite what grounds were used in selecting Wynyard for this tour of South Africa are not clear in view of his lack of cricket in 1909. It seems obvious that he was mainly selected as a reserve as he played in only four first-class matches plus two others. Own Team O M R W Opp Ct St Total Total 149.
