Douglas-Home was the only Prime Minister to have played first-class cricket. In his younger days, under the title of Lord Dunglas, his then courtesy title, he represented the M C C and Middlesex on several occasions. In 1923 Wisden, said �Lord Dunglass was a better batsman on wet pitches - he had the courage of his convictions and could hook and pull the turning ball effectively�. This epithet could equally be said of his politics. He was successful batting on a sticky wicket.
