2 Looks like it should be Brearley as in Mike Brearley the former England Cricket Captain... but it doesn't quite fit....

That's what I thought. It doesn't have enough letters & I'm sure it must be an anagram.

It doesn't have to be a cricket captain, does it?

No. Some of the clues aren't sports related at all, but most of them are.

Still struggling on 2 & 3. I think 3 may be an anagram of RESET but can't work it out. If I can get that one, I'll have the last letter of 2.
