Colin Cowdrey
Michael Colin Cowdrey, Baron Cowdrey of Tonbridge, (24 December 19324 December 2000) was an English first-class cricketer who played for Oxford University (1952–1954), Kent County Cricket Club (1950–1976) and England (1954–1975). Universally known as Colin Cowdrey, he "delighted crowds throughout the world with his style and elegance", and was the first cricketer to play 100 Test matches, celebrating the occasion with 104 against Australia in 1968. In all he played 114 Tests, making 7,624 runs at an average of 44.06, overtaking Wally Hammond as the most prolific Test batsman, and taking 120 catches as a fielder, breaking another Hammond record. Cowdrey made 22 Test centuries (an England record until 2013) and was the first batsman to make centuries against the six other Test playing countries of his era; Australia, South Africa, the West Indies, New Zealand, India and Pakistan, making hundreds against them all both home and away. He toured Australia six times in 1954–55, 1958–59, 1962–63, 1965–66, 1970–71 and 1974–75, equalling Colin Blythe's record, and in his last Test fans hung out a banner 'M.C.G. FANS THANK COLIN – 6 TOURS'.
Colin White (cricketer)
Born at Chiswick in April 1937, White later attended Cranleigh School, where he played for the school cricket team. After leaving Cranleigh, he went up to the University of Cambridge. It was there that he made his debut in first-class cricket for Cambridge University Cricket Club against Surrey at Fenner's in 1958. In his sixth match of 1958 against the touring New Zealanders, White was hit in the mouth by a delivery from Bob Blair. However, two weeks later he was back playing, making a further nine first-class appearances in 1958. Thereafter, he only appeared sporadically in 1958 and 1959, making seven further appearances. White made a total of 22 first-class appearances for the university, scoring a total of 549 runs at an average of just 14.83. His highest score of 64, one of two half centuries he made, came against Nottinghamshire in 1960. He made a final appearance in first-class cricket for the Free Foresters in 1961. After graduating from Cambridge, he became a banker. White died at Epsom in February 2012.
