Autographs of Jimmy Cook

Stephen James Cook (born 31 July 1953) is a former South African association football and cricketer who played in three cricket Test matches and four One Day Internationals from 1991 to 1993. His son Stephen Cook played for Gauteng and the national side, the Proteas. He holds the unique distinction of having faced the first ball of South Africa's international cricket match since readmission.
He played football for Wits University while studying for a teaching degree in the late seventies and featured in the 1978 Mainstay Cup Final.
Cook was a prolific opening batsman both in his native South Africa and for Somerset County Cricket Club but South Africa's exclusion from Test cricket cost him a significant Test career. He played in all 19 of South Africa's 'unofficial Test matches' against rebel sides. He made his ODI debut on 10 November 1991 against India at the Eden Gardens in Kokata, which was also coincidentally South Africa's historic first ever One Day International, as South Africa made a comeback to international cricket after a long hiatus serving a suspension owing to apartheid policies. He was also the first cap of South Africa's first ever official ODI side and he faced the first ball of South Africa's first ODI match while batting as an opener. On his ODI debut, he was dismissed for 17 runs after being caught on the crease putting himself under jeopardy over lbw dismissal due to lack of feet movement. He walked towards the pavilion after being dismissed by Javagal Srinath, facing 48 deliveries without scoring a boundary. Cook became the first ever South African to have faced the white ball in an ODI and coincidentally his son Stephen Cook was also the first South African to face the pink ball as well as the first ever delivery in a day-night Test match.
