There's a much bigger puzzle if thats the case George, ......TIME.

Hello Paul,

Sugden does a nice job of discussing this very issue in his The Complete History of Jack the Ripper. After a very thorough analysis involving game times, train schedules etc. his conclusion is that Druitt cannot be ruled out based on his cricket match. Memory is fuzzy but there is evidence he did play.

Francis Thompson was also obsessed with cricket and often bunked off his anatomy classes to go and watch his beloved Lancashire play at Old Trafford.

He favoured cricket over cadavers.
