The 1949 season is now complete in the scorecard archive. It was the year that Accrington signed their second Australian professional, Reg Craig, the 32 year-old South Australian opening batsman. Craig made batting look easy. He scored 874 runs, including 108 not out at Burnley, and took 72 wickets with his leg breaks at 16.0 each in his one season with the club. Accrington's leading amateur bowler at this time was Ron Eckersley, a 23 year-old former Yorkshire and Cambridge University left arm medium fast bowler. Eckersley had five seasons at Accrington, his best being 1949 when he took 48 wickets at 16.7 each. Ron used to move the ball away from the right handers and he dismissed Everton Weekes several times this way. Accrington finished in 13th position in the table, having won 4 and lost 13 of their 26 matches.
