Procter missed out on so much International cricket due to South Africa's isolation. In only 7 Tests he took 41 wickets at 15.02. best 6-73
He played 259 1st Class Matches for Gloucestershire over 14 seasons scoring 14,441 runs at 36.19 with 32 centuries & a top score of 209 7 & 833 wickets at 19.56.
Career stats - 1st class 401 matches - 21936 runs 36.01 av best 254. 38 - 100's 109 - 50's 325 catches
1417 wickets at 19.53 10wks - 15. 5wks - 70 Best 9-71
List A - 271 matches 6624 runs 27.94 av. 5 - 100's 36 -50's Best 154 no. 91 catches
344 runs 18.76 wks best 6-13
A bit before my time, but having seen his bowling on film he looked a nightmare to face, chest-on action bowling off the wrong foot at high pace & often round the wicket.
A genuine allrounder, he score 6 hundreds in consecutive 1st class innings for Rhodesia.
RIP
