 Bobby Abel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Abel's superb batting on many 'sticky wickets' in 1902 finally induced a recall from the national selectors, but it was clear that he was not the batsman he was ten years before when he failed in both Tests he played.
Although after 1896 his problematic eyesight made Test selectors unwilling to choose him, Abel's accumulation of runs continued to increase: he was the only player to reach 2000 in 1897 and 1898, scored 2685 runs in 1899, 2592 in 1900 and a staggering 3309 (the highest aggregate at the time) in 1901.
Robert (Bobby) Abel (born November 30, 1857, Rotherhithe, Surrey, England; died December 10, 1936, Stockwell, London, England) was a Surrey and England opening batsman who was one of the most prolific run-getters in the early years of the County Championship.

 Oval World on the Net - Surrey Greats
On his Test debut at Lord’s in 1888, Abel played under W.G.Grace who wrote of him: “As a batsman he is in the first flight, having exceptionally strong defence and patience, and for his size he hits very freely all round.
Bobby Abel, popularly known as “The Guv’nor”, overcame the physical disadvantage of being one of the smallest cricketers of all time to become the pre-eminent opening batsman in Surrey and England at the beginning of the last century.
Unflamboyant and calm, Bobby’s greatest innings were built on a foundation of caution which gradually transformed into accelerated run-getting the longer he remained at the crease.

ABEL: One of the things I think we have to think about is, getting back to Chad's point, you know, are we trying to address all these things under this one durability test or is this falling under additional tests that need to be added to the list.
ABEL: So if we get back to our table, I think, hopefully, that is a point that should come out in terms of what additional information should be fed into these tests to make sure that they are achieving as much as possible in terms of predicting failure modes.
ABEL: I think that is more clearly specified in other tests, but I agree that it would probably be a good idea when we are putting Type 3 to differentiate between holes and modular separations.
