His late cutting is quite beautiful and there is a certain ease and maturity about all his batting methods that stamps him as of a different class from the ordinary school batsman." Mr Altham was proved correct in his assesment of the young man's talent as he went on to achieve great success as a batsman for Cambridge University, Sussex and eventually England in a career sadly cut short by recurrent illness. His Test average of 58.5 ranks him among the best batsmen to have played Test cricket.
