Bob Richards
Edit ProfileCareer
Richards was a right-handed batsman who bowled fielded as a wicket-keeper. Richards made his first-class appearance for Essex at the age of 36 against Jamaica during their tour of England in 1970. In a three-day match which was heavily curtailed due to rain, Richards wasn"t called upon to bat, while keeping wicket he took no catches and made no stumpings.
He wasn"t called upon by Essex again following this match, though did continue to play the occasional Second XI match for the county.
