Graham Atkinson (cricketer)
Graham Atkinson (29 March 1938 – 12 November 2015) was a cricketer who played first-class and List A cricket for Somerset and Lancashire. He was born in Lofthouse, Wakefield, Yorkshire, England.
==Early career==
A slim, dark-haired right-handed opening batsman, Atkinson made his debut for Somerset as a 16-year-old in 1954, and two years later was a regular member of the 1956 side that managed, late in the season, to raise itself to 15th out of 17 in the County Championship table, having finished bottom for the previous four seasons. In that season, he scored 719 runs, batting mainly in the middle order. Wisden noted that he "showed promise".
Atkinson played less frequently in the 1957 and 1958 seasons as he was on National Service with the Royal Air Force. On leave in July 1958, however, he made his maiden century, scoring 164 for Somerset as an opener in the match against Warwickshire at Taunton.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Somerset v Warwickshire )〕
Atkinson became Somerset's regular opener from the start of the 1959 season and played in virtually every match for the next eight seasons. In his first full season, he scored 1727 runs at an average of 31, but surpassed that in 1960 with 1928 runs at an average of more than 39, finishing 13th in the national batting averages. In this 1960 season, he made his highest first-class score, 190 against Glamorgan at Bath, when he also put on 300 for the third wicket with Peter Wight, then a Somerset county record. In the match against Cambridge University at Taunton in 1960, Atkinson and Roy Virgin put on 172 and 112 for the first wicket in the two Somerset innings, and Cambridge University's opening pair of Roger Prideaux and Tony Lewis responded with first-wicket partnerships of 198 and 137: this is the first time all four innings of a first-class match have started with three-figure opening partnerships.
