About this person
Ideally he would bat in the middle of the order, but so weak was Worcestershire's batting for much of his career that Howorth would often play as an aggressive opener, and it was in this role that he hit his two highest first-class scores - both being 114. Howorth was also a dependable close-to-the-wicket fielder but would field with skill further out if needed.
