The rollercoaster career of Tony Lock, extending over twenty-five
years, is the saga of a resilient cricketer who triumphed over
adversity. He was an inspirational figure in Surrey's seven
consecutive championship wins in the 1950s when he forged a feared
spin partnership with Jim Laker for both club and country.
Controversy stalked Lock as a bowler during his destructive rule
with Surrey and England but the return to the orthodox style of his
youth brought renewed acclaim. He rejoiced in another role as
captain in reviving the fortunes of Leicestershire and Western
Australia, where he led the state to victory in the Sheffield
Shield. Tony Lock was, for a legion of admirers, an incorrigible
showman, with boundless enthusiasm for the game. It was said of
him, for instance, that when he appealed at the Oval, someone else
was given out at Lord's. Tony Lock: Aggressive Master of Spin is an
engrossing study that reveals the paradox of a volatile and
vulnerable man, but an astonishingly durable cricketer; his memory
will endure.
