As if to remind us that he was perhaps the finest all-round amateur cricketer of his age, it was during this batting purple patch that Jackson took his 500th wicket (in his 186th match), a mark reached like so many in his career, at Headingley. In the penultimate match of the season he completed the double for the only time in his career. Own Team O M R W Opp Ct Total Total 176.
