Bryant made 63 in the first innings against Essex in June 1924,[2] but this was to prove his only half-century. Indeed, his duck in the second innings of that match began a dreadful sequence of scores: he was dismissed for nought five times in six innings (making just 5 in the other), and for single figures in the four innings immediately thereafter.[3] He played his last match against Nottinghamshire in June 1925; his final innings was another duck.[4]
