John Leslie Hendriks (born 21 December 1933) is a former Jamaican
from 1962 to 1969.Born in St Andrew,
Jamaica from 1954 to 1967, and captained the team towards the end of his career.[1]
During Australia's tour of the West Indies in 1964–65, he was hit on the head by a delivery from Graham McKenzie, which he needed brain surgery for.[2] After his career as a well-respected player (as a batsman as well as keeping) he moved to cricket management.[2] In 1984 and 1988, he managed tours to England, and during the 1990s, he became a top International Cricket Council referee.
In June 1988, Hendriks was celebrated on the 25c Jamaican stamp alongside the
Cricinfo's all-time West Indies XI, it was noted that he earned his place in the team because of his wicket-keeping ability rather than his run-scoring.[3]
