Cyril Naylor, a long-standing player in the Oxford and District League, has died aged 74.
Mr Naylor played for teams including Headington Cricket Club, Vikings Sports, Red Lion Garsington, Ampleforth Arms and finally the Masons Arms.
His son, David, played many times with his father, and last week in a fitting tribute hit his best score of 14 dolls (4-5-5) in Masons’ 2-1 defeat by North Oxford Conservative Club.
Mr Naylor leaves a widow Barb, son David, daughter Vikki and five grandchildren.
His funeral service is at Oxford Crematorium tomorrow (10.30am).
