| - Joseph Stanislaus Solomon (born 26 August 1930) is a former international cricketer who played 27 Test matches for the West Indies from 1958 to 1965, scoring 1,326 runs, mainly from number six and seven in the batting line-up. He was born in Port Mourant, Berbice, British Guiana, now Guyana. In 46 Test innings, only one of them was converted into a century (against India at Delhi on his first Test tour), while his occasional leg breaks yielded four Test wickets – including two batsmen with Test batting averages above 45, Ken Barrington and Bill Lawry. He also contributed to the result in the first Tied Test in 1960, when his throw from square-leg hit the stumps directly to run out Ian Meckiff, who was going for the winning run. In the next Test, he was out hit wicket after his cap fell on the stumps. He played first-class cricket for British Guiana/Guyana from 1956–57 to 1968–69, and toured India in 1958–59, Australia in 1960–61, and England in 1963 and 1966. He is the only player in first-class cricket history to score hundreds in their first three innings, for British Guiana in 1957/57 and 1957/58. (en)
