Albert Hallam

Albert William Hallam was an English off spin bowler who was primarily remembered, along with Thomas Wass, for giving Nottinghamshire an astonishing win in the County Championship of 1907.

They did not lose a single match and managed to win fifteen out of nineteen games in which a ball was actually bowled.

This is the highest proportion of wins by an undefeated side and the third highest proportion of wins in County Championship history – and the two higher figures were in very dry summers with almost no rain interruptions.
