William Brindley

Captain William Thomas Brindley OBE, OStJ, KPFSM (4 December 1896 – 13 August 1958) was an English police officer. Brindley was also a cricketer, who played as a right-handed batsman, although his bowling style is not known. He was born in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire and attended High Wycombe Royal Grammar School from 1910 to 1915.〔http://www.rgs.tonyhare.co.uk/Wycombiensian/1949%20February.pdf Page 693〕 He would later become a senior colonial police officer in Ceylon.
Brindley served in World War I, entering service as a 2nd Lieutenant in the reserve of the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry. By November 1917 he held the rank of Lieutenant and was still serving in the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry, in that same month he was promoted to Acting Captain. Following the war, Brindley reverted to a Lieutenant on 25 June 1919. He left the British Army on 1 April 1920, upon resigning his commission he was granted the rank of Captain.
At some point following the war he joined the Ceylon Police Force. It was in this coming period of the 1920s and 1930s that Brindley played representative cricket. In England, he made his debut for Buckinghamshire in the 1925 Minor Counties Championship against the Kent Second XI.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played by William Brindley )〕 In British Ceylon he made his first-class debut for Dr J Rockwood's Ceylon XI against WE Lucas' Bombay XI in February 1926. A year later he made another two first-class appearances, one for the Europeans (Ceylon) against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club, and another for Ceylon against the same opposition.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First-Class Matches played by William Brindley )〕 He returned to England in 1930, playing Minor counties cricket for Buckinghamshire,〔 as well as making a first-class appearance for the Minor Counties against Lancashire.〔 His next first-class appearance came against Ceylon against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club in February 1934. In that same month he appeared for a combined India and Ceylon XI against the same opposition.〔 In 1935, he once again returned to England, where he made eight further Minor Counties Championship appearances for Buckinghamshire,〔 as well as making two further first-class appearances for the Minor Counties, against Cambridge University and Oxford University.〔 These matches marked his final first-class appearances, in total he made nine appearances, scoring 221 runs at an average of 17.00, with a high score of 59 not out. With the ball, he took 14 wickets at a bowling average of 27.78, with best figures of 5/40.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Player profile: William Brindley )
He was later present at the coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth at Westminster Abbey in December 1936. In January 1938, Brindley was admitted to the Venerable Order of Saint John as an officer. In 1947, he was made a member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire. By this stage in his policing career, he was the Deputy Inspector General of Police in Ceylon. He continued this role into 1951, a year in which he was awarded the King's Police and Fire Services Medal by King George VI. In Ceylon, he led the Police side to several Government Services Cricket Championships.〔 He later died in Virginia Water, Surrey on 13 August 1958.
