Cricket career Hodges was born in Knightsbridge, London, on 11 August 1855 and is believed to have died on 17 January 1933 in Melbourne, Victoria.

He had the unusual distinction of playing in a Test match (and not just any Test match, the first ever given such status) before playing for his colony.
