John Reid innings ends at 92
A great innings has come to an end with the death of John Reid.
The 92 year-old grew up in the Hutt Valley, attending Hutt Valley High School and playing for Hutt Districts.
He was inducted in the Hutt Valley Sports Awards Hall of Fame in 2011.
He was in charge in 1956 when New Zealand won their maiden test, against the West Indies in Auckland, and was in the 11 a year earlier when they were routed for a still world record 26 by England.
Reid is generally rated alongside Sir Richard Hadlee and Martin Crowe in discussions over our greatest cricketers.
