June 01

1 June 1907. Colin Blythe took all 10 wickets in Northamptonshire's first innings and added seven more in the second. He accomplished all of this in a single day of cricket. Arunabha Sengupta recounts the day this fragile left-arm spinner of creative flair routed the Northants. An early case of leg-over is also addressed. Furthermore, Kent had won the Championship in 1906. Blythe and his comrade-in-arms, fast bowler Arthur Fielder, had annihilated one opponent after another.
