sentences:  In a game ruined by bad weather, only 55 overs were possible, although in this time Cumbes did manage to take his maiden First-Class wicket, that of Worcestershire captain Don Kenyon.However, it was to be almost three years before he played another First-Class match, and when that came (against Kent) his 4–42 was rather overshadowed by Derek Underwood's outstanding return of 6–9 for Lancashire's opponents.Moving to Surrey for the 1968 season, Cumbes at last managed a long run in the side, and took 54 wickets at 17.68 including 6–35 against Oxford University and 6–47 against Hampshire.
