Top 10 players of all time from Glamorgan

#8 Ossie Wheatley

Ossie Wheatley

Right arm fast medium bowler Ossie Wheatley started off his first-class career at Warwickshire in 1959 but moved to Glamorgan a year later and went on to become one of the best players to have played for the county. Wheatley was made the captain of Glamorgan as well as soon as he joined. He was a tough bowler to negotiate and his hostility often proved too much for many batsmen in the county circuit in the 1960s.

Despite giving up the captaincy and becoming a bit part player in the side, Wheatley returned to the side in 1968 and became the top wicket-taker in the season. In his first-class career, he took 1069 wickets and recorded an average of 21, to cement his place as one of the greats of the domestic game in England.
