 Greetham was one of several Somerset batsmen for whom the 1964 season saw a regression.Unlike Peter Wight and Brian Roe, who suffered similar declines, he retained his place for most matches, but his aggregate of runs dropped by more than half to just 504, there was only one score of more than 50, and his average fell too to just 15.His bowling offered no consolation, and his wickets fell to just 17 and the average rose to more than 40 runs per wicket.
