Ray Robinson (cricket writer)

Warner invited him to become the periodical's Australian correspondent, and Robinson continued contributing to it until the early 1980s.

Subsequently, he toured with the Australians in 1948, 1953, 1956 and 1961 (to England); and to South Africa in 1957–58 and the West Indies in 1954–55.

[1] Invited to join the staff of The Daily Telegraph by Sir Frank Packer, Robinson relocated to Sydney in 1939.

Awarded a Commonwealth Literary Fund fellowship and a grant from the Literature Board of the Council for the Arts, Robinson began work on his magnum opus, a series of essays about Australia's cricket captains.

In his latter years, he suffered from poor health but he continued writing though he was legally blind.
