Anton Murray
Anton Ronald Andrew Murray (30 April 1922 in Grahamstown, Cape Province – 17 April 1995 in Cape Town, Cape Province) was a South African cricketer who played in 10 Tests in a little over a year from December 1952 to February 1954, appearing four times against Australia and then six times against New Zealand. He later toured England as a member of the 1955 South African side but did not appear in any of the Tests there. Outside cricket, he was a schoolmaster who founded a noted school in Pretoria.
==Cricket career==
Anton Murray was a tall and athletic cricketer: a useful middle or lower order right-handed batsman and a right-arm slow-to-medium-pace bowler who used a lot of variations of pace. He played South African domestic first-class cricket from the 1947–48 season, and had a sensational first season for Eastern Province, scoring 133, which proved to be his highest first-class score, in only his second match, the game against Western Province at Cape Town. Later in the same season, he took seven wickets for 30 runs, his best single-innings haul, in the match against Orange Free State at Bloemfontein.
The suspension of the Currie Cup competition over the next two seasons while first England and then Australia toured South Africa limited Murray's first-class cricket to just two matches in the first season. In 1950–51, when the domestic competition resumed, Murray had an unspectacular batting season and, except in one innings, a modest bowling season too: the exception was the match against Transvaal, when he took seven for 109, the second seven-wicket haul of his career. These were seven of only eight Transvaal wickets that fell to bowlers in the match, which Eastern Province lost by 10 wickets.
There were more runs and more wickets in the 1951–52 season, but no more centuries or five-wicket innings hauls.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 First-class Batting and Fielding in each Season by Anton Murray )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 First-class Bowling in each Season by Anton Murray )〕 But at the end of the South African domestic season he was selected for the match between J. E. Cheetham's XI and D. J. McGlew's XI which was used by the South African Test selectors to pick the team to tour Australia and New Zealand the following winter. The first two days of the match were lost to rain, but Murray then took four wickets for 36 runs, the best bowling figures of the match, to win a place on the tour.
