Read through all quotes from Ted Dexter
In the First Test at Headingley Dexter selected four fast bowlers and no spinners for the team advised Gower to put Australia in to bat only to see them made 601/7 and win by 210 runs. He was the only serving officer who enlisted at the start of the war to have survived until the end and had been awarded the Military Cross a medal which sadly had now been stolen. His powerful innings enlivened the First and Second Tests and gave England a 1-0 lead in the series.
