Garrett (Kent cricketer)
Garrett (first name and dates unknown) was an English cricketer who played for Kent during the 1750s.
Career
Garrett is first mentioned in the report of the Kent v Surrey game at Dartford Brent on Friday, 6 July 1750.[1] He then played for Kent against All-England in the two matches at the Artillery Ground in May 1751.[1]
As Garrett had established his reputation by 1750, he must have been active for some years previously. His career probably spanned the 1740s and 1750s when very few players were mentioned by name in contemporary reports.
