Graham Alan Gooch OBE DL (born 23 July 1953) is a former English cricketer who captained Essex and England. He was one of the most successful international batsmen of his generation, and through a career spanning from 1973 until 2000, he became the most prolific run scorer of all time, with 67,057 runs across first-class and limited-overs games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Records / Combined First-class, List A and Twenty20 / Batting records / Most runs in career )〕 His List A cricket tally of 22,211 runs is also a record.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=10,000 or More Runs in List A Matches )〕 He is one of only twenty-five players to have scored over 100 first-class centuries. Internationally, despite being banned for three years following a rebel tour to ostracized South Africa, Gooch is the second highest Test run scorer for England. His playing years spanned much of the period of domination by the West Indies, against whom his mid-forties batting average is regarded as extremely creditable. His score of 154 against them at Headingley in 1991 is regarded as one of the greatest centuries of all time by many critics and former players. His career-best score of 333 – added to his second innings century – remains the highest match aggregate at Lord's. He is the first to make 20 Test appearances at Lord’s. As captain, Matthew Engel noted, "his fanatical fitness and work-ethic gave the team more purpose than it had shown in a decade."〔 After 118 Tests, aged forty-two, he retired into coaching and as team selector, before becoming a commentator. In 2009 he was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame. He returned to coach Essex, before becoming England batting coach in 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Player Profile: Graham Gooch )〕 ==Overview== Gooch was born in Whipps Cross Hospital, Leytonstone, in East London.
