Lindsay Tuckett

SeamUp

International Coach
Recently passed away and held the position as the oldest living test cricketer before that & I know South African Norman Gordon held that for ages before he passed a way quite a while back now.

Was just passing by on some stories & there are some real good one's as he missed quite a bit of test cricket due to the War.

Another South African, John Watkins is now the oldest. Anywhere where we can find a bigger list ?
