Ross Stanford

Ross Milton Stanford (25 September 1917 – 11 July 2006) was a South Australian first class cricketer who served in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) as a pilot during the Second World War, flying Avro Lancaster heavy bombers over Europe. During his military career, Stanford flew 47 operational missions and served in the famed No. 617 Squadron RAF. He also represented the Australian Services XI at cricket, playing games in England, India, Ceylon and Australia before being demobilised in 1946. In civilian life, Stanford ran his own market garden business, worked for the State Bank of South Australia and had an unsuccessful political career. He was also known for his charity work in Adelaide.
==Early life==
Born in Fulham, South Australia, Stanford's parents own a market garden. Growing up he was a keen cricketer and as a 14-year-old scored 416 not out while playing for Lockleys Primary against Richmond Primary. At the time it was a world record for a schoolboy. His success resulted in a scholarship to Prince Alfred College in Adelaide. He continued his interest in cricket after completing his schooling, joining the West Torrens District Cricket Club. He went on to make his first-class cricket debut as an 18-year-old, playing for South Australia against Tasmania in the Sheffield Shield at the Adelaide Oval in February/March 1936.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RM Stanford )
His debut proved unsuccessful. Joining Donald Bradman at the crease, Stanford was run out without scoring, with a team-mate later explaining that Stanford had been very nervous. He did not bat again and was dropped from the team for the next match.〔 Having begun a career in the State Bank of South Australia, Stanford's cricketing career was put on hold when he was transferred out of Adelaide to Waikerie and then Tailem Bend. As a result, Stanford would not play first-class cricket again before the outbreak of the Second World War.〔
