Harry Pickett
Henry "Harry" Pickett (26 March 1862 – 3 October 1907) was an English cricketer who represented Essex for 17 years although only the last four were at first-class level. A fast bowler he was 'powerfully built' and 'bowled with a high arm'. His most significant performance came in 1895 when he took all ten Leicestershire wickets for 32 runs.〔(Essex v Leicestershire, County Championship 1895 ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 These are the best innings figures recorded by an Essex bowler,〔(Most Wickets in an Innings for Essex ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 the fourth best in the County Championship,〔(Most Wickets in an Innings in County Championship ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 and the ninth best in first-class cricket.〔(Nine or More Wickets in an Innings in First-Class Cricket ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕
Born in Stratford, Pickett first played for Essex in 1881 but it would be 13 years before the county was awarded first-class status. In the intervening period he did make several first-class appearances for the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the first in 1884 against Sussex.〔(Marylebone Cricket Club v Sussex, Other First-Class matches in England 1884 ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 He played in Essex's first ever first-class match in 1894 but struggled in that first season taking 11 wickets at an average of 31.09.〔(First-class Bowling in Each Season by Harry Pickett ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 The following season, Essex's first season in the County Championship, was more successful. He took 66 wickets, at 17.72, including the 10/32 against Leicestershire as well as five-fors in wins against Somerset and Hampshire.〔〔(Player Oracle: H Pickett ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 Over the next two seasons he took 50 wickets at around 30.〔 He didn't play again for Essex following his benefit season in 1897, he played one match for the MCC in 1898 before two seasons of umpiring.〔〔(Harry Pickett as Umpire in First-Class Matches (34) ), CricketArchive, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕 Following the end of his playing career he also coached at Clifton College.〔(Obituaries in 1907 ), Wisden Cricketers' Almanack, Retrieved 17 September 2009〕
Pickett disappeared on 27 September 1907 and a week later was found washed ashore on Aberavon beach.〔 His death is listed as suicide.〔
