Briggs was a right-handed batsman who bowled slow left-arm orthodox. He was born at Haslingden, Lancashire. Briggs made his first-class debut for Lancashire against Leicestershire in the 1939 County Championship. He made three further first-class appearances for the county in that season, the last of which came against Derbyshire,[1] with the onset of World War II prematurely ending his first-class career. In his four first-class appearances for Lancashire, he took 10 wickets at an average of 39.10, with best figures of 4/48.[2] With the bat, he batted just twice, ending each innings not out on 0.[3] Following the war, he made eight Minor Counties Championship appearances for Cheshire in 1948.[4] He played for Haslingden Cricket Club in the Lancashire League from 1933 to 1957.[5] He died at Rawtenstall, Lancashire, on 1 June 1984. Dudley Carew observed of his bowling style: "Don't be afraid to give her air" is sound advice to a slow bowler, and indeed a bowler who is so afraid of being hit that he increases his pace and bowls defensively short of a length is not likely to be of much service to his side, but this Briggs went to the other extreme. He must have been the slowest bowler who ever appeared in first-class cricket, and he tossed the ball so high that the batsman had time to change his mind two or three times before he decided on his stroke.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/28/28127/First-Class_Matches.html|title=First-Class Matches played by Jack Briggs|publisher=CricketArchive|accessdate=5 February 2012}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/28/28127/f_Bowling_by_Team.html|title=First-class Bowling For Each Team by Jack Briggs|publisher=CricketArchive|accessdate=5 February 2012}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/28/28127/f_Batting_by_Team.html|title=First-class Batting and Fielding For Each Team Jack Briggs|publisher=CricketArchive|accessdate=5 February 2012}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/28/28127/Minor_Counties_Championship_Matches.html|title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played by Jack Briggs|publisher=CricketArchive|accessdate=5 February 2012}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/28/28127/all_teams.html|title=Teams Jack Briggs played for|publisher=CricketArchive|accessdate=5 February 2012}} 6. ^Dudley Carew, To the Wicket, Chapman & Hall, London, 1946, p. 140.
