	John Emburey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Emburey was briefly made England Test captain in 1988, the notorious "Summer of four captains"([1]).
		Emburey too was fired and was replaced by Chris Cowdrey (regarded as a 'specialist captain') for the fourth Test.
		Emburey was the only cricketer to go on both the England rebel tours to South Africa in 1981/2 and 1989/90; the rebels were banned from Test match cricket because of the apartheid régime.

		John Emburey, Ben Hutton and Vinny Codrington were the men on the panel, with Codrington chairing after Chris Lowe had sent his apologies from the wet and windy Caribbean.
		Emburey later added that he much prefers to see bowlers become fit by actually using their bowling muscles and not by the usual “run around a track” method.
		John Emburey is well aware of the members’ concerns over spin bowling and has been looking at the youth to try and provide a turnaround (pardon the pun) in the future.

	[No title]
		The Middlesex off spinner John Emburey was England's first choice spinner for nearly l7 years, although his career was continually interrupted, not least by two bans for touring an ostracised South Africa.
		He was captain of England for two Tests in the six-captain summer of 1988, losing the job not because of his own actions but because the incompetence of his batsman meant the spinner's place had to be sacrificed to an extra batter.
		Although he missed the legendary Headingley Test he played an important part in the second victory at Edgbaston, taking 4-43 in the first innings, scoring 37 not out to shore up England's innings, then removing Border with a sharply spinning ball as the left hander was winning the match.

	Stephen Fleming: Articles
		It was so bad near the end of the 1990s that Australian coach John Buchanan, who arrived at Middlesex bristling with scientific and rigorous plans, found himself bogged down in apathy and factions, and opted not to return for his scheduled second year.
		Emburey is in no doubt that Fleming is the ideal man for the job.
		Emburey was impressed by the left-hander's composure under pressure, and by the way he related to the raft of younger players in the side.

	Cricinfo - Players and Officials - John Emburey
		In the era before Shane Warne when spin bowling was on its uppers, John Emburey was perhaps the best offspinner in the world, which did not say much.
		Emburey was the only cricketer to go on both (1981-82 and 1989-90) England rebel tours to South Africa, and was instantly forgiven both times, which says much about attitudes at Lord's but something about the general esteem for his qualities.

		John Emburey on Jamie Dalrymple: 'The key for Jamie is he played very well in his first innings when the side was struggling, and then batted well throughout scoring runs in every match'
		But Emburey, speaking to Cricinfo during Middlesex's Championship match against Sussex at Southgate last week, was full of praise, convinced that Dalrymple had the ability to perform.
		Of course Emburey's comments maybe loaded with bias, but they were said with determination, almost insistence, that his young charge was more than a bits-and-pieces halfway-house, and that Fletcher was impressed with what he has seen.
