James William Cecil Turner (2 October 1886–29 November 1968) was an English cricketer who played 46 first-class games for Worcestershire either side of the First World War, as well as appearing twice for H. K. Foster's XI. ==Cricket career== Turner made his debut for Worcestershire against Essex at Amblecote on 31 July 1911, scoring 27 and 11 in a crushing innings-and-228-run defeat.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Worcestershire v Essex in 1911 )〕 A further five appearances that season brought Turner little success, and nor did a handful more the following season. In 1913 he played a solitary match for H. K. Foster's XI, but he was then unseen in first-class cricket until after the First World War. Turner's return to the game, against Gloucestershire at Worcester in June 1919, saw him make his first half-century: he hit 72 in the second innings of a drawn match.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Worcestershire v Gloucestershire in 1919 )〕 However, he did not again pass 30 that season, although he did pick up the first of his two first-class wickets when he accounted for Warwickshire's Frederick Santall at Worcester at the end of August.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Worcestershire v Warwickshire in 1919 )〕 1920 saw Turner both hit another half-century — 85 against Warwickshire in August〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Worcestershire v Warwickshire in 1920 )〕 — and take his other wicket — that of Sussex's George Stannard.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Sussex v Worcestershire in 1920 )〕 The following year, which proved to be his last in the game, Turner scored his only century, hitting 106 against Northamptonshire, though Worcestershire suffered a 356-run defeat, which as of 2007 remains Northants' greatest-ever margin of runs victory.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Northamptonshire v Worcestershire in 1921 )〕〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Largest Margin of Runs Victory )〕 Turner twice captained the Worcestershire side: against Warwickshire at Birmingham in 1919, and against Glamorgan at St Helens in 1921.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Player Oracle on CricketArchive )〕 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「J.
