Hi All,

Thought these two attachments could be of interest.

Firstly the middle page of a Wanderers' programme dated 7 Feb 1953, apparently posted to me as I was already in NZ.
Dick Tunmer is playing at right half and the only other name I remember is Ken Butler playing at inside left.

The other one is from the Test Match at Eden Park from 25 to 30 March 1955. I think Vic Wilson the Yorkshire batsman was the player left out.
This game was remarkable for two events. Can you name both?
I saw each day of this Test Match, as I was serving Queen & Country with the RNZAF, who apparently couldn't find us anything to do, so those who were interested spent the 5 days at the cricket. No entrance cost and Air Force bus provided. Those were the days!

Cheers
