Jack Pearson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lawrence Ivor Pearson (better known as Jack Pearson; born January 25, 1922) was an English cricketer. He was a left-handed batsman who played for Derbyshire during the 1946 season.

Pearson, one of ten players who made their County Championship debut the year the Championship came back after the Second World War, had been playing since the previous July, but made his foray into the County Championship after its reinstallation. As Derbyshire finished in a disappointing fifteenth position in the table, Pearson found himself out of the team.

Pearson was an upper-order batsman for the Derbyshire team for the short time he played, though he finished with one of the lowest averages of the season.
