Bill Andrews (cricketer) - Forfarshire

Forfarshire

Out of a job he took the post of Professional and coach for Forfarshire in Scottish county cricket. In 1933 he finished third in the county batting averages and set a club record by taking 104 wickets. A number of times in 1933 and 1934 Somerset asked him to play but the Forforshire committee refused. Andrews was keen to return to first-class cricket and during his two seasons in Scotland he made sure that his improved performances were well reported in the local newspapers. His success was such that Somerset offered him a contract for the 1935 season.
