About Charles Knott

Charles James Knott was an English first-class cricketer, cricket administrator, and motorcycle speedway promoter. Knott began his first-class cricket career with Hampshire as a right-arm medium pace bowler, before switching to bowl off-spin from his third first-class match. Knott went onto be considered one of the best amateur spinners in England, and came close on a few occasions to being capped at Test level for England. Playing in 173 first-class matches between 1938 and 1957, he took 676 wickets, with 47 five wicket hauls. He remained connected to Hampshire following his retirement from playing, holding the post of chairman of cricket from 1967 to 1988. During that period he was instrumental in attracting some of the best young cricketers to Hampshire, and oversaw their second County Championship title in 1973.
