Richard Brooke (cricketer)
Rev. Richard Hubert John Brooke (6 June 1909 – 3 May 1973) was an English cricketer and clergyman. Brooke was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace. He was born in Eton, Buckinghamshire.
He was educated at St Edward's School, Oxford,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Wisden Obituary – Deaths in 1973 )〕 where he played for the school cricket team. Brooke had made his debut for Buckinghamshire in the Minor Counties Championship in 1929 against the Surrey Second XI.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played by Richard Brooke )〕 He later undertook studies at Oxford University.〔 It was for Gloucestershire that he made his first-class debut for, incidentally against Oxford University Cricket Club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-Class Matches played by Richard Brooke )〕 He batted once in this match, scoring 37 runs before being dismissed by Tuppy Owen-Smith.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oxford University v Gloucestershire, 1931 )〕 Immediately following this match, he made his only first-class appearance for the Free Foresters against Oxford University. Once more he batted just once in the match, scoring 27 runs before having his innings ended by Evelyn Wellings. He also took his maiden first-class wicket in this match, that of future South African Test cricketers Alan Melville.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oxford University v Free Foresters, 1931 )〕 Having played against the university in 1931, he proceeded to make 2 appearances for the university in that same season, against the Army and Surrey. He played 11 further first-class matches for the university, all in 1932, with the last of them coming against Cambridge University.〔 A prolific batsman for the university, he scored 810 runs at an average of 45.00, with a high score of 140.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-class Batting and Fielding For Each Team by Richard Brooke )〕 This score, one of four centuries he made, came against the Marylebone Cricket Club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Marylebone Cricket Club v Oxford University, 1932 )〕 With the ball, he took 9 wickets at a bowling average of 25.11, with best figures of 3/7.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-class Bowling For Each Team by Richard Brooke )〕
While at Oxford, Brooke continued to play Minor counties cricket for Buckinghamshire, which was the case after he left Oxford. Playing for Buckinghamshire allowed him to play first-class cricket for the Minor Counties cricket team, who he made his debut for against Oxford University in 1933. He made 2 further first-class appearances for the team, against the touring West Indians in 1933, and the touring South Africans in 1935.〔 In his 3 first-class matches for the team, he scored 169 runs at an average of 28.16, with a high score of 125.〔 This score came against Oxford University in 1933,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Oxford University v Minor Counties, 1933 )〕 meaning all his first-class centuries came either for or against Oxford University. He also took 4 wickets for the Minor Counties, which came at an average of 9.50, with best figures of 3/11.〔 Brooke continued to play for Buckinghamshire until 1939, making a total of 51 Minor Counties Championship appearances.〔
During his life he served as a master at Shrewsbury School for over 30 years, as well as a Rector at Great Canfield, Essex, a position he held from 1969 to his death in 1973.〔
