A bit late but remiss not to celebrate our own cricketing God
Joe, 33 on the 30th Dec
Currently the only player still playing with over 10,000 test runs.
He's got 11416 so is about 1000 behind Alistair Cook.
With a fair wind we could be celebrating him becoming the highest ever English test scorer some time this year.

There was another table ( which I can't find now)of the top scorers per calendar year for the last 10 years.
Joe topped it twice - the only one to do so-with his being the highest total of 1708and then 1487 with the next ,cheating Steve smith , having got 1484.

Just found this graphic showing progress over the years.
 
It’s arblasters birthday according to the official site and he’s replied thanking them so it must be reyt but his wiki page says may 5th 🤷‍♂️
perhaps it’s just a favourite date for some reason 🤔😉
 
Great with Steampacket but just a run of the mill singer after that. And anyone who recorded Sailing should be shot. Not a patch on Chris Farlowe, Long John Baldry and Maggie Bell.
