The West Indies cricket team toured Australia in the 1951-52 season and played five Test matches against Australia. The series was billed as the "World Championship of cricket", with both teams having beaten England in the previous 18 months. In the event, the series was a disappointment with Australia winning fairly easily by four matches to one. After the Australian leg of the tour, the West Indies team moved on to New Zealand where the first Test matches between New Zealand and West Indies were played. See this article for further details. ==The West Indies touring team== The West Indies team was captained by John Goddard, who had led the side to series victories over India and England. The full side was: * John Goddard, captain * Jeff Stollmeyer, vice-captain * Denis Atkinson * Robert Christiani * Wilfred Ferguson * Gerry Gomez * Sammy Guillen * Prior Jones * Roy Marshall * Allan Rae * Sonny Ramadhin * Ken Rickards * John Trim * Alf Valentine * Clyde Walcott * Everton Weekes * Frank Worrell All of the players except Guillen and Marshall had played Test cricket before the tour, and the two exceptions made their debuts during the Australian leg of the tour. 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「West Indian cricket team in Australia in 1951–52」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
