Who is W. Baker?

W. Baker was an English cricketer who played two first-class matches for Worcestershire in 1920.

He took only one wicket, that of Essex's Norman Saint; this happened on debut at Leyton in late May 1920. Baker also made his only catch in this match, to dismiss England Test cricketer Jack Russell.

In his second and final first-class appearance, against Kent at Tonbridge in mid-June, Baker scored 6 and 5 and did not bowl. It was in this game that Frank Woolley took his thousandth first-class wicket, although his victim was not Baker.
