Wikipedia:

"Binks' County Championship career is unique. Coming into the Yorkshire team in June 1955, he then played in every single Championship game played by Yorkshire until he retired at the end of the 1969 season. The 412 matches he played in during this run were the ONLY Championship games he ever played. Yorkshire won the Championship seven times in this period."

I remember reading somewhere that he revealed after his retirement that he had played with broken fingers on several occasions, as he was concerned about losing his place if someone else took the gloves.
