Reginald Lagden
Reginald Bousfield Lagden OBE MC (15 April 1893 – 20 October 1944) was a British businessman and sporting administrator in Calcutta. He was a double blue at the University of Cambridge, in cricket and field hockey, and went on to represent England in the latter sport, although his sporting career was interrupted by the First World War. After the war, Lagden settled in India, where he became prominent in Bengal business circles. He served as a president of the Calcutta Cricket and Football Club and the Cricket Association of Bengal, but died in a plane crash in 1944, aged 51.

Making his first-class debut for the Cambridge University Cricket Club during the 1912 season,〔(First-class matches played by Reginald Lagden ) – CricketArchive. Retrieved 11 September 2015.〕 Lagden went on to score two centuries during the year – 101 against Yorkshire and 132 against Hampshire.〔(Cambridge University v Yorkshire ), University Match 1912 – CricketArchive. Retrieved 11 September 2015.〕〔(Hampshire v Cambridge University ), University Match 1912 – CricketArchive. Retrieved 11 September 2015.〕 In the 1912 University Match against Oxford, he played against his brother, who dismissed him for six runs in the second innings of what was to be his final first-class match.〔(Oxford University v Cambridge University ), University Match 1912 – CricketArchive. Retrieved 11 September 2015.〕 Towards the end of the season, in July, Lagden also played a single County Championship match for Surrey, appearing against Yorkshire at The Oval.〔(Surrey v Yorkshire ), County Championship 1912 – CricketArchive. Retrieved 11 September 2015.〕 Lagden added three more centuries in 1913 – 142 against Middlesex in the opening match of the season, a career-high 153 against Hampshire, and 125 against the MCC. Owing to this good form, he was selected in both of the Gentlemen v Players fixtures at the season's end, representing the Gentlemen (the amateur players).〔 In Lagden's final year at Cambridge, he scored only a single century, an innings of 106 which once again came against Hampshire. In the same time, he was serving as captain of the Cambridge University Hockey Club. His hockey was played as a centre half-back, and he represented England in several internationals during both 1913 and 1914.〔
