Answer
Sutcliffe's first-class debut was delayed by the First World War, a global conflict that began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. During this period, many sporting events were suspended, including cricket matches. Sutcliffe, like many other aspiring cricketers of his time, had to wait until after the war to make his debut in first-class cricket.
