Who was John Newstead?
John Thomas Newstead was an English first-class cricketer, who played 96 first-class matches for Yorkshire County Cricket Club between 1903 and 1913.
Newstead was born in Marton, Middlesbrough, Yorkshire, England. An all-rounder who batted in the middle order, he was selected as one of Wisden Cricketers of the Year for 1909, when his 927 runs and 140 wickets were a big factor in regaining the County Championship for Yorkshire the previous season. A bowler of near medium pace, he also imparted the then fashionable in-duckers, or quick off spin.
