Lives in Cricket No 13 - AP Lucas

Bowden and Edwin Diver were all talented young amateur batsmen who came into the Surrey side in the 1883 season, which saw a marked improvement in the club’s fortunes, so their decision was probably the right one. The rift was unfortunate, but Surrey did not entirely forget about Lucas and forty years later sent a wreath to his funeral. 62 Surrey and England, 1879-1882
