Peter Sainsbury: Ex-Hampshire all-rounder dies at 80

Former Hampshire all-rounder Peter Sainsbury, the only man to play in both of their County Championship-winning sides, has died at the age of 80.

An orthodox left-arm spinner, right-handed batsman and excellent close fielder, Sainsbury helped Hampshire win the Championship in 1961 and 1973.

Also winning the Sunday League in 1975, he retired after the 1976 season and then coached the side until 1991.

Sainsbury took 1,316 wickets and made 20,176 runs in 618 first-class games.

Born in Chandlers Ford near Southampton, Sainsbury made his first-class debut for his native county in 1954, and spent more than two decades in the side.

He took the wicket which won the Championship when the title was clinched against Derbyshire at Bournemouth  in 1961 - and once dismissed England great Len Hutton twice in a day.

Although he never played for England, he was once named by legendary commentator John Arlott in a best XI of English players  who never won full international honours.
