Description

Len Hutton: A Life in Cricket Len Hutton was a batsman who enjoyed a stellar career with Yorkshire and England. Born into a family of cricketers, he began playing the game as a schoolboy and quickly established himself at Pudsey St Lawrence CC. His reputation grew, leading to his introduction into County cricket with Yorkshire, where he became one of the best batsmen in the world. Hutton's career was marked by several notable achievements, including a score of 364 at the Oval in 1938, which remained the highest Test innings for twenty years. Despite serving in the Army during World War II and suffering an injury that left his arm shorter than his right, Hutton returned to First Class cricket and went on to become captain of England. This biography, written with the full cooperation of its subject, provides a detailed account of Hutton's life and career, including his experiences playing for Yorkshire and England.
