Charlie Parker (cricketer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (633 words)
Charles Warrington Leonard "Charlie" Parker (born October 14, 1882 in Prestbury, Gloucestershire, died July 11, 1959 in Cranleigh, Surrey) was an English cricketer who stands as the third highest wicket taker in the history of first class cricket, behind only Wilfred Rhodes and Tich Freeman.
In 1919, with Dennett serving as an officer in the Army, Parker was forced to become Gloucestershire's chief bowler.
Though helped by appalling batting sides for much of his success, Parker took 125 wickets in 1920, 167 in 1921, 206 in 1922, 204 in 1924, and headed the first-class averages with 222 in 1925.
