SUMMARY
SUMMARY
A left handed batsman, Ken Wishart scored 52 and 0 in his only Test match, versus England in 1935. He was one among many to have been undone by the then policy to form a core of six players and then complete the XI with players from 'home' territory.
He is more remembered for his remarkable administrative skills and forthright vision, which elevated both the West Indies and Guyana Cricket Boards. He was Guyana's representative on the West Indies Board from 1949 until his retirement in early 1972.
