Famous Cricketers No 82 - H.E. 'Tom' Dollery

innings of 80 against Essex at Brentwood uncharacteristically contained 50 singles and seemed to sum up just how out of sorts he was. He finished behind Ord and Ken Taylor of the regular batsmen in the Warwickshire averages with a return of less then twenty-six per innings and his county finished a dismal 15th in the Championship after being in 6th place in mid July.
