Gentleman and player : the story of Colin Cowdrey, cricket's most elegant and charming batsman
Murtagh, Andrew2017
Book
Colin Cowdrey is remembered for the elegance of his strokeplay, but there was much more to this complex man than a classical cover drive. His successes were numerous: 114 test matches, 22 test hundreds, and 100 first-class centuries. There was controversy and disappointment too - and, later, a leading role in cricket administration.
