Edmund Joe Adams (1 February 1915 – 1 March 2005) was an English cricketer who played one first-class match for Somerset in July 1935.[1] Adams was born in Shepton Mallet and died in Kingston upon Thames. A book published in 2017 gave his date of death as 24 March 2005.[2]

Adams batted in just one innings of the match against Essex at Clacton.[3] He scored five coming in fifth in the batting order in the first innings, but when Somerset captain Reggie Ingle rejigged the order to make swift runs for a declaration in the second innings, Adams did not bat. Ingle's tactics were justified with a 150-run victory.

Life and career

Adams was the son of a stonemason and a schoolmistress, and the family relocated from Somerset to Wandsworth in London, where he played club cricket with Roehampton Cricket Club and the Club Cricket Conference, though he remained a supporter of Somerset.[2] By career, he was a travelling salesman, though he also acted temporarily as a groundsman at Cheltenham after war service.[2]
