Jimmy Bridges

James John (Jimmy) Bridges (born 28 June 1887 at Timsbury, Somerset; died 26 September 1966 at Hackney, London) was an English cricketer who played for Somerset CCC from 1911 to 1929.

Bridges was a right-arm fast-medium bowler who batted right-handed.

He played in 216 first-class matches and took 686 wickets at an average of 25.67 with best figures of 7-41. He achieved 5 wickets in an innings (5wI) on 45 occasions and 10 wickets in a match 4 times.

He was a tail-end batsman who played 348 innings, 108 not out, 2418 runs @ 10.07 with a highest score of (unluckily) 99*. He made two fifties and took 128 catches.

Bridges was the bowler when Jack Hobbs scored the run that took him to his 126th career century and so equalled the world record of W G Grace.
