Encyclopedia > Bart King

John Barton King (1873 - 1965) was an American cricketer, and the most prominent player in the US during cricket's brief North American 'Golden Age'.


King played club cricket for the Tioga and Belmont clubs in Philadelphia, and also played a number of international games between 1892 and 1912, including three tours to England. His achievements in touring matches against English county teams demonstrated that he was able to play against the best in the world at that time, indeed his bowling average of 11.01 for the Philadelphians tour of England in 1908 stood for many years as the single season English record. He was also a good batsman, and his record innings of 344 still stands as the North American record.
