Sad news I've watched Tom playing for Gloucestershire a few times.

I'm shocked that this has happened just two weeks after his elder brother Ken died at the age of 90, he also played for Gloucestershire.
Tom, I believe, was 88....

Two great sportsmen ... RIP 'boys'

Tom also played for Worcestershire Mags I never saw him play though.

He was much admired in Worcestershire .

Gloucestershire used to play at Bristol County Ground which was only 15 mins walk away from where I used to live ... my dad loved cricket and always took me with him to the matches
