Audley Miller
Audley Montague Miller (19 October 1869 – 26 June 1959) was an amateur cricketer who played one Test match for England in 1896, and stood as an umpire in two Tests, also in 1896. Life and career Miller was born in Gloucestershire and educated at Eton College and Trinity Hall, Cambridge. He married Georgiana Porter in Fairford, Gloucestershire, in August 1897. Miller's participation in his only Test came on England's tour of South Africa in 1895-96. The early England touring parties to South Africa comprised mostly good minor county or club cricketers, with a small number of first-class cricketers thrown in. The games against South Africa were only given Test status retrospectively. Miller was one of the minor players on the tour, and he made his first-class and Test debut in the 1st Test at Port Elizabeth in February 1896, scoring 4 not out and 20 not out. Due to the bowling of George Lohmann (7-38 and 8-7, including a hat-trick), England won easily, by 288 runs. On the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Test Cricket
Test cricket is a form of first-class cricket played at international level between teams representing full member countries of the International Cricket Council (ICC). A match consists of four innings (two per team) and is scheduled to last for up to five days. In the past, some Test matches had no time limit and were called Timeless Tests. The term "test match" was originally coined in 1861–62 but in a different context. Test cricket did not become an officially recognised format until the 1890s, but many international matches since 1877 have been retrospectively awarded Test status. The first such match took place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in March 1877 between teams which were then known as a Combined Australian XI and James Lillywhite's XI, the latter a team of visiting English professionals. Matches between Australia national cricket team, Australia and England cricket team, England were first called "test matches" in 1892. The first definitive list of retro ...
