(Though I think Hutton's old-fashioned "King Kex" in 10 date it to about the 50s.)

Wally: correct on all of 2, 6, 14, 18-21 (all new, and you have a 100% success rate in your choices - good quizzing as usual.)
Dan: correct on 5 (new), but not on 10
Gary: correct on a lot of them: 1-7, 9, 11-15 (15 is new) and 20. (And cheers back.)
The previous update should also have included 8, already correctly guessed (apologies to Sir Lard de Bouquet), and should have read "11-13", not "1-13" (!)
So, summing up: The only ones still outstanding, I think, are 10, 16 and 17.
Clues if you want them:
10: English (here running out Keith Miller). Regarded by Tiger O'Reilly as the finest keeper in cricket so far, and still often considered among the best there have been.
16: name already mentioned. Sideburns, here just failing to stump Doug Walters.
17: more recent Indian. (Not Dhoni.) Here acrobatically stumping Vaughan.
Woo. 14/22 More than i'd hoped for.
17=

17: "Got 'im he's gawwwn ....."
Quiz over as regards correct guesses - but anyone who wishes can try for themselves. The wonders of the spoiler function.

Thanks very much for the thread, Peter. 
The quiz was fun and I really enjoyed looking at all the old pictures. Until duty called.
Son: "Mum, when's dinner going to be ready? It's past my bedtime."

Bump, for (finally) a full answer list. This includes any other details (years/occasions, other players, etc.) that the sources give.
If you haven't had a go, do try the quiz before peeking!
(Sorry about all the lecturing .... )

I'll give him a glass of tap water too. That should sort out his calcium requirements for the next year or so.
ETA: Thanks for the details, Peter.
