Colin Duff
Colin Eric Duff (28 February 1876 – 17 May 1941) was a Rhodesian sportsman who represented his country in cricket and rugby union. Duff, who grew up in the Cape Colony, played his early rugby with Western Province, before transferring to Rhodesia, with the help of former England international and Rhodesian administrator William Henry Milton. He competed for the Rhodesian rugby team in the Currie Cup and set a competition record four drop goals in a fixture against Border. The record wasn't beaten until 1992, when Naas Botha booted five drop goals for Northern Transvaal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Currie Cup Individual Records )〕 His elder brother, Benjamin Duff, was a rugby union player as well and was awarded the first ever Springbok cap in 1891.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Ben Duff )〕 Like his brother, Duff also played first-class cricket. He made his debut in the 1904/05 Currie Cup cricket season, against Transvaal. A medium pace bowler, he counted Test opener Jimmy Sinclair as one of his two first innings wickets.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Transvaal v Rhodesia in 1904/05 )〕 It was until 1910 that he appeared in another first-class fixture, with Rhodesia hosting the H. D. G. Leveson Gower's XI. He took four wickets in the space of four overs in the fourth innings, conceding 11 runs, as the match ended in a draw.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Rhodesia v HDG Leveson-Gower's XI in 1909/10 )〕 ==References==
