Alan Smith (cricketer)
Alan Christopher Smith, known as A. C. Smith (born 25 October 1936, Hall Green, Birmingham, Warwickshire) is an English former Test cricketer, who appeared in six Tests for England. Primarily a wicket-keeper, Smith was also a capable right-handed middle-order batsman and right-arm seam bowler. Very unusually for a regular wicket-keeper, he was sometimes selected by Warwickshire as a frontline bowler.
He was the last amateur to play for England, before the MCC abolished such a status.
