King belongs to a generation of cricketers whose careers spanned the post-war decades, a period in which the first-class game expanded across domestic competitions in South Asia and the Caribbean. Biographical records list him among cricketers of his cohort with first-class appearances on file.
Detailed match-by-match records of King's career are preserved in cricket statistical archives. As with many cricketers of the era, his playing days predate continuous televised coverage, and his record survives largely through scorecards and tour reports.
King's inclusion in standard cricket reference works underlines the breadth of first-class cricket in the second half of the twentieth century, when several touring sides and domestic tournaments produced a substantial roster of professional players whose careers are now documented chiefly through archival sources.
