Wells also played a single first-class match for a side representing Kent in 1793, against the Marylebone Cricket Club. In addition to playing first-class cricket for the above sides, he also represented Hampshire and Sussex, TA Smith's XI, N to Z and England.〔(Teams James Wells played for )〕 In his overall first-class career, he scored 261 runs at an average of 8.15, with a single half century score of 80. In the field he took 4 catches.〔(James Wells career statistics )〕 Wells' first-class appearances total depends on whether it was he or John Walker who played for All-England against Hampshire in 1794: S&B records Wells but adds that Walker is included in another account. It is possible that Walker was selected and Wells stood in for him.〔Haygarth, p.175.〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Wells (cricketer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
