[edit] The 1939-40 MCC Touring Party

(wherein the curious will find the answer to Q268 of the Cricket Quiz)

Flight-Lieut Jack Holmes (capt) Hugh Bartlett John Brocklebank Billy Griffith Roger Human Bob Wyatt Emrys Davies Tom Dollery Harold Gimblett George Pope John Langridge Gerald Mobey Stan Nichols Jack Parker Peter Smith Arthur Wellard

Tests to be played at Bombay, Calcutta and Madras.

Holmes, Bartlett, Brocklebank, Human, Davies, Langridge, Mobey and Parker never played Test cricket.

The manager was to have been Lieut.-Col. C.B. Rubie; in the event, Col. Rubie died on 3 November, 1939 after an operation, so his participation must have been doubtful.
