• Relación: \nJack Mercer is still the only Glamorgan bowler to have taken all ten wickets in an innings. The stalwart swing bowler\nachieveed this feat quite fittingly during his Benefit Year in 1936, against Worcestershire at New Road. He returned\nfigures of 10/51, which were a handsome reward , both for his years of loyal service to the Welsh county, and on that\nparticular day in 1936, for keeping an immaculate length and swinging the ball lavishly in the humid atmosphere. \n', 'Mercer was a very colourful and larger than life character who amongst other things had spent time in Russia as a young man,\nhad served with distinction in the Great War, and in later life was a member of the Magic Circle. His fine career as a swing\nbowler began with Sussex between 1919 and 1921, but Mercer found his opportunities restricted by the presence of the\nlegendary Maurice Tate.', 'In 1922 Mercer moved to South Wales and from 1924 until the outbreak of the Second World War, he was Glamorgan`s opening\nbowler. He regularly claimed over 90 wickets in a season, passed the hundred mark on six occasions, and was the first bowler\nto take over a thousand wickets fo the Welsh county in first-class cricket. Whilst these are hugely impressive statistics,\nit is also worth remembering that duing the 1920`s in particular, Glamorgan did not have the most athletic of fielders,\nclose to the wicket, and had Mercer been supported by more agile catchers, his tally would have been even higher.', 'His success was based on the priceless ability to swing the ball either way, and on unhelpful wickets, he often cut\ndown on his pace and bowled off-cutters. As a result, he could undertake long spells, and even when well into his forties,\nMercer was always willing to shoulder the brunt of the bowling. He was also a bold tail-end batsman, and in 1939 he hit\nDick Howarth of Worcestershire for 31 runs in an eight ball over, with four sixes in six balls, all high\ninto the rugby grandstand at the Arms Park ground.', 'After the Second World War, Mercer joined Northamptonshire for whom he also served as coach and scorer.
