jack hobbs
the start of the 20th century brought a decline in surrey's fortunes, and they won the title only once during the next fifty years, in 1914. at the request of surrey's captain lord dalmeny, the prince of wales (later edward viii) allowed the use of his feathers on the club badge. the club's most famous player was jack hobbs, who began playing for the county in 1905, and he had a notable opening partner till 1914 in tom hayward, who scored 3,518 runs in all first-class cricket in 1906, equalled c.b. fry's record of 13 centuries in a season and, in one six-day period, scored two centuries at trent bridge and two more at leicester. he scored his hundredth hundred at the oval in 1913. between the two world wars, surrey often had a good side, but it tended to be stronger in batting than in bowling; hobbs played until 1934 with another good opening partner in andrew sandham. hobbs scored more runs (61,760) and compiled more centuries (199) in first-class cricket than any other player in the history of the game. in recognition of his contribution to the team, the eponymous jack hobbs gates were inaugurated at the oval.
