International Debutant
Sad news. Reminds me of the proverb when an elder dies a library burns to the ground. Author of over 30 cricket books, selector for 14 years. I used to love the Cricket Annual that he edited. I didn't realise he played first class cricket, even leading Wellington to the Plunket Shield.

International Vice-Captain
A real contributor in so many aspects of the game.

Of his books. I have 2 of his co-authored historic ones. Which are excellent. Summer Game plus the Basin Reserve history one.
