Robin Jackman, who has died aged 75, was an accurate and bustling fast-medium bowler who was unlucky not to play in more than four Test matches; he had a lengthy and consistent career with Surrey, helping them to win the County Championship in 1971.
When, a decade later, he finally joined an England tour party, he became embroiled in a row with the government of Guyana over his links with South Africa.
