dbpprop:abstract
  • John Augustine Snow played cricket for Sussex and England in the 1960s and 1970s. Despite being the son of a country vicar and publishing two volumes of poetry Snow was England's most formidable fast bowler between Fred Trueman and Bob Willis. and played Test Matches with both of them at either end of his career. He is most famous for bowling England to victory against the West Indies in 1967-68 and Australia in 1970-71 and was selected as one of Wisden Cricketers of the Year in 1973. Snow was involved in several on-field incidents stemming from his aggressive, short-pitched bowling. He was considered difficult to handle, had definite ideas on how and when he should bowl and was disciplined by both Sussex and England, but perfectly fitted the public image of a fiery fast bowler. His disdain for the cricketing authorities at Sussex and Lord's was aptly summed up in his autobiography Cricket Rebel and in his decision to play for Kerry Packer's World Series Cricket in 1977-79.
