"Today a reader, tomorrow a leader." -- W. Fusselman
Richards, William, 1749-1818We have 1 book for this author.
The match was the second in the 1888-89 series against the team led by Sir C. Aubrey Smith, and called at the time "C. A. Smith's XI", but retrospectively accorded the status of a full MCC tour. In fact, in the game at Newlands, Cape Town played by Richards, the touring side was led by Monty Bowden. Richards batted at No 7 in each innings and scored 0 and 4 as South Africa were bowled out for 47 and 43 to lose by an innings and 202 runs. The match was Richards' only first-class game, although he played for Western Province in the years before provincial matches in South Africa were considered first-class. Richards' two brothers, Joseph and Alfred, played first-class cricket for Western Province and Alfred played once for South Africa in 1895-96.
