Harry "Hooker" Knight

Hooker, so called because of his initials: Harry Oliver O'Neill Knight, was the captain of Glory Gardens. He is the narrator of the series. He bowled left arm swing at medium pace and batted right handed. As well as playing for Glory Gardens, he represented the County Colts. He was the leading all-rounder at Glory Gardens, and topped both the batting and bowling averages. Hooker resigned from the captaincy twice, and was reinstated both times - once in the club's third season when an influx of players led to disagreements over selection, and once a year later when he felt his own performance was being affected.
