Wilfred Norris "Wilf" Slack (12 December 1954, Troumaca, St Vincent – 15 January 1989, Banjul, The Gambia) was an English cricketer, who played in three Test matches and two One Day Internationals for England in 1986. A left-handed opening batsman, Slack was a victim of mysterious blackouts while playing, and died, apparently of a heart attack, while batting in The Gambia, aged 34.〔 ==Early life== Slack's family migrated from the Windward Islands to High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire, England when he was 11 years old. He was a left-handed opener and played county cricket for Middlesex between 1977 and 1988. He also played for his native Windward Islands in the West Indies domestic competition between 1981–82 and 1982–83. He spent time playing cricket for various local sides, progressing into the Buckinghamshire team in 1976, at the age of 21, becoming the minor county's leading run-scorer for the season, with 748.〔(Wilf Slack ) ESPN Cricinfo〕 The Middlesex coach, Don Bennett, marked him as first-class county material, and he was signed by them the next year.〔 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「Wilf Slack」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
