Arthur Brian Douglas Parsons (born 20 September 1933, Guildford, Surrey, died 11 February 1999, Chippenham, Wiltshire) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket from 1954 to 1964. ==Early career== Brian Parsons attended Brighton College, where he played for the first XI for six years, culminating in 1953 in the captaincy of the Public Schools team at Lord's.〔''Wisden'' 1954, p. 734.〕 He went up to Corpus Christi College, Cambridge and was immediately selected for the university team. On his debut he batted at number three, making 26 and 46 and adding 103 for the second wicket with Dennis Silk.〔(Cambridge University v Warwickshire 1954 )〕 Two weeks later he made 30 and 66, again at number three, against the Pakistan touring team.〔(Cambridge University v Pakistanis 1954 )〕 Thereafter his form fell away, and although he retained his place in the team he descended in the order, batting at seven and nine in the final match of the season against Oxford University.〔(Oxford University v Cambridge University 1954 )〕 He had another mediocre season in 1955 but again kept his place. This time, after batting in several positions in the order, he opened the batting against Oxford.〔(Oxford University v Cambridge University 1955 )〕 National service as a gunner〔''Wisden'' 1958, p. 548.〕 in the Army deprived him of the opportunity to play in the university side in 1956. He played numerous matches for the Army and the Combined Services in 1956 and 1957, four of them first-class. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brian Parsons」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
