Have only just caught up with this thread. I'm surprised no-one's yet mentioned Graham Miles, who's written at least 2 songs about cricket, one of which, about the origins of cricket, was sung in the barn of the Three Horsheshoes at Towersey today lunchtime. The other is "An Evening in Summer".

PS Thanks Okthen for McDougal, which I haven't heard for ages (probably not since the Bushwhackers came over to England)
