Arthur Sutthery
Arthur Melbourne Sutthery (25 March 1864 – 15 May 1937) was an English cricketer who played in 20 first-class cricket matches for Cambridge University and other amateur teams between 1886 and 1888. He was born at Clifton Reynes in Buckinghamshire and died at Chelsea, London in May 1937 aged 73. The son of the vicar of Clifton Reynes, Sutthery was educated at Uppingham School, Oundle School and Jesus College, Cambridge. As a cricketer, he was a right-handed middle-order batsman and a right-arm medium-pace bowler. He achieved little in his first season of first-class cricket for Cambridge in 1886 and had lost his place in the first eleven before the University Match against Oxford University. In 1887, however, he developed into a reliable batsman, and made scores of 72 in both the Surrey and the Marylebone Cricket Club matches, the games immediately before the University Match of that year. He won his Blue by appearing in the 1887 University Match and his 73 was both h ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Blue (university Sport)
A blue is an award of sporting colours earned by athletes at some universities and schools for competition at the highest level. The awarding of blues began at Oxford and Cambridge universities in England. They are now awarded at a number of other British universities and at some universities in Australia, Canada and New Zealand. History The first sporting contest between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge was held on 4 June 1827, when a two-day cricket match at Lord's, organized by Charles Wordsworth, nephew of the poet William, resulted in a draw. There is no record of any university "colours" being worn during the game. At the first Boat Race in 1829, the Oxford crew was dominated by students of Christ Church, whose college colours were dark blue. They wore white shirts with dark blue stripes, while Cambridge wore white with a pink or scarlet sash. At the second race, in 1836, a light blue ribbon was attached to the front of the Cambridge boat, as it was the colour of G ...

Exeter
Exeter () is a city in Devon, South West England. It is situated on the River Exe, approximately northeast of Plymouth and southwest of Bristol.

North V South
The North of England and South of England cricket teams appeared in first-class cricket between the 1836 and 1961 seasons, most often in matches against each other but also individually in games against touring teams, Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) and others. Until international cricket became firmly established towards the end of the 19th century, the North v South match was one of the major fixtures in the cricketing calendar along with Gentlemen v Players. Indeed it was really ''the'' major fixture because whereas the Gentlemen teams were often very weak, North v South could potentially showcase the best 22 players in the country. In all, the North played against the South 155 times in first-class matches. Early matches – 1836 to 1838 Cricket in the 18th century had been predominantly a southern game, played especially in London and the southeastern counties. It had spread to the northern counties by the 1770s and noted clubs were formed at Manchester, Nottingham and Sheffi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
