Jack Davey (born 4 September 1944) is a former English cricketer. Davey was a left-handed batsman who bowled left-arm fast-medium.[1] An opening bowler, Davey had a successful career with Gloucestershire County Cricket Club which spanned from the 1966 season to the 1978 season. His name sometimes appeared in reports and on scorecards as J.J. Davey, although this was not accurate: the second initial was a mischievous creation by his county captain Tony Brown and the writer Alan Gibson, whose campaign to embellish Davey's name even extended to the production of a commemorative tie, in Davey's testimonial season, with "J.J?" on it.[2]
