Barrie and Cricket

[Rebecca]

I was recently looking at this website's photos of Barrie with the Allahakbarries, and I remembered something I once read in a Barrie biography (I can't remember which, but I don't think it was JMB&TLB). What I read was that short people are better at cricket, and this was why Barrie was good at it. Unfortunately I don't know anything about playing cricket, so I don't know if this is really true or not. Does anybody know if being short gives you an advantage at it?
