Bowling & Wetherell Statistics

Cricketer Cup bowling leaderboards and the Wetherell all-rounder index.

These Cricketer Cup statistics were first compiled by Angela KR Aulton (A'1979), long-time scorer of the Pilgrims (1987-2013). They have been updated to include seasons up to 2025.
The italicized entries for JL Hutton, RA Hutton, DG Pilch, PWS Rowland are because of the lack of information of the number of overs and maidens that were bowled by them - only the runs and wickets were known for the uncompleted first semi-final match vs Malvern in 1968.
