George Duckworth was a professional cricketer who played first-class cricket for Lancashire and England. Duckworth, who won his cricketing fame as a wicket-keeper, joined Lancashire in 1922, playing his first game in 1923 and his last in 1938 and went on to become a Lancashire committeeman. 1928 saw his best season, with him taking 77 catches and 30 stumpings, and this earned him the accolade of being one of the Wisden Cricketers of the Year in 1929. He played 24 Test matches for England, but as a wicket-keeper he was in direct competition in his later years with Les Ames, who was a much better batsman. He was awarded a benefit in 1934, which raised 1,257. He was reputed to have the loudest shout of appeal of any cricketer of his time. Duckworth's total of 925 dismissals for Lancashire is a record for the county. After retirement, Duckworth was a journalist and a broadcaster on both cricket and rugby league
