RIP Judge
Robin Smith, who passed on today
Robin Smith
Like older brother Chris, he was unable to play for the country of his birth because of the exclusion of the apartheid regime from international cricket, but because he had British parents he qualified to play for England. He played in 62 Tests from 1988 - 1996.

John Shepherd
Was such a long serving all-rounder on the county circuit, it’s forgotten that ‘Shep’ played 5 Tests for West Indies between 1969-1971.
His long career in county cricket was spent at Kent & Gloucestershire from 1966-1987, always seemingly with a smile on his face.

Very high on the list of ‘Greatest players to have never played a Test’, maybe even top. He ended his first class career with a batting average of 40.95 and a bowling average of 22.49.
