English captain in 1980s cricket and Shakespeare's Henry V (5)

I believe the answer is:

gower

(Other definitions for gower that I've seen before include "Swansea peninsula; a captain (Henry V)" , "Welsh peninsula" , "Peninsula - cricketer" , "character 8 [OF SHAKESPEARE]" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
