- Douglas_Carr abstract "Douglas Ward Carr (17 March 1872 in Cranbrook, Kent – 23 March 1950 in Sidmouth, Devon) was an English amateur cricketer.Carr went to Brasenose College at Oxford University and while there played both football and cricket. He injured his knee playing football, and as a result did not make any first-class appearances for the university's cricket team.After leaving Oxford, he spent some years playing club cricket in the Maidstone area, and it was during this period, in 1908, that he learnt to bowl the then fairly new googly. The following May he made his first-class debut for Kent against his old university, and took seven wickets in the match, including 5-65 in the first innings. His next chances came in July, in two Gentlemen v Players games, and again he met with success, taking a total of fifteen wickets in the four innings.Carr quickly established himself as a regular in the Kent side, and by the second week of August had claimed no fewer than 42 wickets in his first six first-class games. There was now a clamour for his inclusion in the England team, all the more so as England were 2-1 down in the Ashes series at the time. The selectors agreed, and although Carr was twelfth man for the drawn game at Old Trafford, he was picked for the final match of the series at The Oval, becoming the first man ever to play Test cricket in his first year in the first-class game. Carr took 7-282 in the match, including 5-146 in the first innings, although his efforts could not force an English victory and the resulting draw meant that the Australians carried off the Ashes. The newspapers heavily criticised the England captain A. C. MacLaren for over-bowling Carr.1909 was also Carr's best in first-class cricket as a whole, as he took 95 wickets including an analysis of 28.1-10-36-8 against Somerset; he was to equal that 8-36 return three years later against Gloucestershire. Named a Wisden Cricketer of the Year, in 1910 he helped Kent to the County Championship title, and in 1912 he averaged just 12.01 in taking 61 first-class wickets.A poor batsman, Carr never made a half-century, and in his later years his batting declined even further; in his last significant season (1913) he scored only 95 runs in 17 innings. In 1914 he played only one match, in late July against Surrey. He toiled away for 0-134 from his 28 overs, and the start of World War I a few weeks later brought an end to his cricketing career. Carr died at the age of 78 in Salcombe Hill, Sidmouth, Devon.".
