- George_Parker_(cricketer) abstract "George Macdonald Parker (27 May 1899 in Cape Town, Cape Province – 1 May 1969 in Thredbo, Australia) was a South African cricketer who played in 2 Tests in 1924.He is almost unique in that two of the three first-class matches he ever played were Tests. He was qualified for South Africa only through having been born in Cape Town, and played almost all of his cricket in the Bradford League. He was not originally in the 1924 team to England. However, with bowlers possessing a high reputation on matting, like Blanckenberg and Nupen, failing completely on English turf wickets, Parker was called in to reinforce the side for on match against Cambridge University. Although play lasted only five hours due to rain, Parker took four wickets for 34 on a pitch too soft to suit him and was promptly given a place in the First Test at Edgbaston.In that match, which ended disastrously as Arthur Gilligan and Maurice Tate produced one of the finest bowling performances in cricket history to bowl South Africa out for a mere thirty runs in their first innings, Parker was by far the best of the South African bowlers, taking six of the ten wickets that fell for 152 runs. In the second Test, which England won by the same margin of an innings and eighteen runs, Parker was the only bowler to take a wicket, taking the two wickets that fell for 121 runs in an innings declared for 531 runs.However, Parker was not able to play in matches against counties and, despite having taken two-thirds of the wickets that had fallen the first two Tests, he was not given a further trial. He never played first-class cricket again.Parker returned to South Africa and in 1929 married Marguerite Grace Illingworth (“Peg”) of Bradford, England. They raised five children in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. In his latter years Parker’s research in breeding sheep for better wool led him to Australia, where he died in Threadbo in the Snowy River Mountains in 1969.".
