John Henry Pentecost (15 October 1857 – 23 February 1902) was an English professional cricketer who played for Kent County Cricket Club between 1882 and 1890. [1]
Pentecost was born at Brighton in 1857 [a] and made his Kent debut in 1882 against Yorkshire at Bramall Lane, Sheffield. [2] He played primarily as a wicket-keeper, making 63 of his 66 first-class cricket appearances for the county, making 124 dismissals. [2] [3] Writing in Wisden in 1907 George Marsham described him as "not a very brilliant wicket-keeper" but "a very plucky one" [3] and Pentecost was forced to stop playing earlier than would have been normal due to "failing eyesight". [4]
After being awarded his county cap in 1885, [2] Pentecost was awarded a benefit match in 1892 and was a member of the ground staff at Lord's. [4] He died at St John's Wood in London [a] in February 1902 aged 44. [4] [5]
