Part 2 of our discussion on the life and career of cricket colossus Wilfred Rhodes (1877–1973). This episode dissects his transition from bowler to batsman (and then back to bowler), his domestic life, his famous return to the Test side for the final match of the 1926 Ashes series, and his retirement years. ABOUT PATRICK FERRIDAY: Born in London, he lived for many years in West Berlin but returned to England to work as a racing commentator in the early nineties.
