Lamb Bats

The South African born batsman was the mainstay of the England middle-order in the 1980s and early 1990s and went on to become one of the best middle-order batsmen to have ever represented the country.

He did bat at number 3 a few times but it was as a middle-order batsman in the number 5 and number 6 positions that Lamb made his name in international cricket.

He was a feisty stroke-player and had the technique to negotiate the best bowlers in the business. During his time, the West Indian fast bowlers were almost unplayable at times but Lamb did well against them.

He batted in the middle-order on 73 occasions and scored 4274 runs at an average of 37.16. He scored 13 centuries and 16 half-centuries as a middle-order batsman.
