Alfred Rose (cricketer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alfred Rose (15 February 1894 — 21 June 1985) was an English cricketer who played for Derbyshire in 1924.

Rose was born in Glossop, Derbyshire. In the 1924 season he made a single first-class appearance for Derbyshire in May against Lancashire. Like eight others in the innings, he was a victim of the bowling of Cec Parkin and made a duck in his only innings batting in the middle order.[1] When he was asked later in the summer to play again, he replied that he was too old for that class of cricket.[2]

Rose died in Kilton, Nottinghamshire at the age of 91.
