Percy Tarilton
Percy Hamilton Tim Tarilton was a Barbadian cricketer who represented the West Indies in the days before they achieved Test status. A good driver of the ball, he made his firstclass debut for Barbados in 1905 and played until 1930. He hit his maiden firstclass century against Marylebone Cricket Club in 1913. The First World War prevented Tarilton from establishing an international reputation, for example through touring England. In 1920, Tarilton scored the first triplecentury by a West Indian cricketer, in a match for Barbados against Trinidad when he scored 304 not out. According to C. L. R. James, Tarilton was the best West Indian batsman before 1923. George Challenor was a more stylish batsman and greatly admired in Barbados, but Tarilton was the more reliable. However, Challenors success on the 1923 tour of England established his reputation. Tarilton, also chosen to tour, scored 554 runs at an average of 21.30, his only century being 109 not out against Nottinghamshire. In 1927
