An exuberant, hard-hitting right-handed batsman, noted for the power of his driving, Arnold Quick played 19 matches for Essex.[2] He played most of his first-class cricket before the Second World War, making only two appearances afterwards, in 1948 for the Marylebone Cricket Club and in 1952 for Essex. Quick made 439 runs in his career, at a batting average of 13.71 runs per innings. His best score of 57 was one of two half-centuries. He also played over forty Second XI matches for Essex, captaining the team from 1956 to 1959.[2]
