ABERCROMBY, JAMES, also spelled Abercrombie, (1706-1781) born in Banffshire, Scotland, was a career British army officer. He was appointed major general in 1756 before accompanying Lord Loudoun to America as his second in command. He succeeded Loudoun as commander-in-chief in North America in 1758. Despite the fact that British troops captured both Fort Duquesne and Louisbourg during his tenure as commander-in-chief, his disastrous defeat by a much smaller French force at Ticonderoga in July 1758 caused his recall later the same year. After his return to Britain, he received further promotions in 1759 and 1772. As a member of Parliament, he favored a firm line against colonial demands.

ADAMS, JOHN, (1735–1826) of Braintree, graduated from Harvard in 1755 and practiced as a lawyer, before becoming increasingly allied to Boston patriots during the 1760s. Following the Boston Massacre, Adams led the legal defense of the soldiers. In 1770, he was elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives.

He gets reliable outswing from a full length, unlike so many of his West Indian rivals, but seems to prefer banging it in halfway down. Rose enjoyed a meteoric Test debut against India in 1996-97, taking 6 for 100 in the first innings, including five specialist batsmen. But his next 18 Tests produced just one more five-wicket haul - 7 for 84 at Durban, where Wisden said "Rose got more swing than anyone on either side". Macho tendencies returned for a dire 2000 series in England, where his attempts to bounce Dominic Cork did so much to lose the crucial Lord's Test. The photographers would have liked to see more of that star-shaped, fist-pumping wicket celebration. Simon Briggs Franklyn Rose Career Stats Explore Statsguru Analysis Recent Matches of Franklyn Rose
