Profile

Ken Ablack was a slow left-armer who played three games for Northamptonshire immediately after the war. He remained in Britain, working with the Caribbean section of the BBC, and in 1950 and 1957 he was a commentator when West Indies toured England. He later returned to Trinidad where he became an influential figure at Queen's Club.
