William Crowhurst

William Crowhurst was an English cricket player at the turn of the 20th century. William played in just one match, in 1877. This makes him the second Wikibloogia subject to remind me of Moonlight Graham.

I've never really played cricket. Maybe once or twice. I can't remember. I like crickets though. I like the sound of crickets on a summer's night. I also like fictional crickets, including Jiminy Cricket and Chester Cricket from The Cricket in Times Square. That book was the bomb.


Sometimes cricket players turn into cows.
