Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other people Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox cricketer George Sutton Watson (10 April 1907 – 1 April 1974) was an English cricketer and footballer.[1]
Born in Milton Regis in Kent, Watson was educated at Shrewsbury School.[2] He appeared in eight first-class games for Kent's First XI between 1928 and 1929, having played for the Second XI since 1926. He played the vast majority of his cricket instead for Leicestershire - 225 appearances and over 8000 runs as a professional.[3] His 1973 obituary in Wisden described him as "an attacking bat and a glorious field." His right-handed batting brought him five centuries for Leicestershire, and he took a single wicket with very occasional left-arm medium pace bowling.[4]
A keen footballer, he also played twice for England in 1930 as an amateur, and played for Charlton Athletic, Maidstone United, Crystal Palace, Nuneaton Town and Gloucester City.[4][5]
He died in Guildford, Surrey, in 1974.
