yes, he was an Olympic champion after 1904 so therefore he received a gold medal.

This sportsman captained his country at cricket and was given a nickname with respect to his initials and his batting. Also, in his Olympic victory, his opponent was an Australian who was also versatile in a number of sports.

Further clues are his cricket career was before and after WWI and he was drowned in an accident at sea. I think I've been more than generous now.

Moved the previous question to cricket quiz so will replace it with this one which retains an Olympic taste.

Have Australia and New Zealand ever fielded a combined team and if so, when ??

Yes.

Australia and New Zealand competed as Australasia in London (1908) and Stockhome (1912).
