Not quite.

I went to Durham University and worked for a while as an English teacher.

Ok, here we go.

I'm a right handed batsman, born in 1910.

No joy yet. Here's clue 2.

My son was also a test match cricketer. He too was a right-handed batsman.

George Headley. Near miss if not right.

Near miss indeed. But not right, I'm afraid.

Headley was a good guess AC. I didn't know he had a cricketing son, so I leaned something. Looking it up, apparently Ron Headley batted left handed and played 2 tests for West Indies. So there you go :)
