In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling cricket match between Lancashire and Sussex in the 1956 County Championship. The focus of the image is on Alan Wharton, a legendary cricketer for Lancashire C. C. C. , as he confidently strides out onto the field at Old Trafford. Wharton's remarkable career spanned from 1946 to 1960, during which he played an impressive total of 392 first-class games for Lancashire. His immense talent is evident in his staggering record of scoring an astonishing 17,921 runs and achieving an incredible 25 centuries. Such extraordinary achievements solidify his place among cricketing greats. Although Wharton only had one opportunity to represent England in a test match against New Zealand in 1949, his impact on the sport cannot be understated. His skillful batting technique and unwavering determination made him a force to be reckoned with on any pitch. Interestingly, Wharton also dabbled in rugby league for Salford alongside his cricketing endeavors, showcasing his versatility as an athlete.
