Amongst them are a number of well-known players including W.G. Grace, Jack Hobbs, Don Bradman and Douglas Jardine, there are also a number of historic cricket players –

C.S. ‘Ted’ White who played for New South Wales and toured England with the Australian team in 1938 without playing a Test match
Donald Knight who opened regularly for Surrey with Jack Hobbs during 1919 but the following year was unfortunately struck on the head whilst fielding and his batting was never the same again
Andy Ducat who was one of the very few sportsmen to represent England in cricket and football
Andy Sandham who made the first triple century in Test cricket
Nawab of Pataudi who was one of the few cricketers to have played for two international teams in Test cricket namely India and England

There is also a collection of Indian cricket memorabilia which features a variety of letters and books from P.R. Man Singh.
