West Indian cricket team in England in 1900
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The West Indian cricket team toured England for cricket matches in the 1900 season.
The team played 18 matches, 12 of them against sides of first class standard, between 11 June and 10 August 1900. However, the West Indian team had not been adjudged as having first class status by this time.
Professor Clem Seecharan has given a full account of this tour in his book Muscular Learning – Cricket and Education in the Making of the British West Indies at the End of the 19th Century.
