The Welshman is regarded as one of the greatest bowlers to have ever played county cricket and in a career that lasted around 22 years (1950-1972), Don Shepherd emerged as Glamorgan's highest ever wicket-taker with a tally of 2174 wickets.

The right arm medium fast bowler started off a traditional swing bowler, who could move the ball either way but a few years into his career, he developed the off cutter and that proved to be his most devastating weapon as a bowler.

Shepherd picked up in excess of 100 wickets in a season on 12 occasions and remains the most successful bowler to have never got a call-up to the national team. He had a first-class bowling average of only 21.32.
