Davis was the Warwickshire scorer from 1988 to 1998. In 1994 he was in the Caribbean with England when he recorded every single run scored by Brian Lara in his Test Match record breaking 375 in Antigua, only to follow this two months later by recording every run in Lara’s momentous 501* against Durham at Edgbaston. He died in 2015 at the age of 92
