As a young boy, Tim Jones' love of cricket was developed in the face of adversity. Confined to a wheelchair for long periods as a result of numerous operations to correct clubbed feet, his father - struggling to fill the time - taught him how to catch and throw. Once mobility improved, the natural progression was to batting and bowling, where the style of his hero, Glenn Turner, was copied for hours on end in the family's back garden.It was Turner's exploits in completing the coveted 1,000 runs before the end of May in 1973 which persuaded Tim's father to take him to New Road, Worcester, to see the great man play. The die was cast and a lifelong passion for Worcestershire cricket was ignited. Possessing a photographic memory for faces, details and records, Tim's first work, the biography of Worcestershire's inspirational Leader of Champions and Champion of Leaders, Don Kenyon was published in 2015 and his second book, The 52 - Worcestershire's Forgotten First-Class Cricketers, was published in 2021.
