SUMMARY

A sound wicket-keeper, Bill Farrimond played 4 Tests for England between 1931 and 1935. His Lancashire colleague - George Duckworth - though was the first choice keeper for England and kept Farrimomnd out of the XI on most ocassions. Duckworth's early retirement at the end of 1937 gave Farrimond a late opening but his career was put to a halt by the War.
