Samuel Jackson (cricketer)

Samuel Jackson (cricketer)

Samuel Robinson Jackson was a first class cricketer who played one game for Yorkshire County Cricket Club in 1891. A right handed batsman, he scored 9 and a duck in the Roses Match at Old Trafford which Lancashire CCC won by an innings and 49 runs. He fared much better in a non first class match against Leicestershire CCC at Headingley in the same year, scoring an unbeaten 54 out of Yorkshire's first innings of 156 and 15 in the second dig. Leicestershire won an exciting match by just one wicket with numbers 10 and 11 at the crease. Reputed to be a right arm fast bowler, he did not turn his arm over in either of these games.

He was born on July 15, 1859 in Ecclesall, Sheffield and died on July 19, 1941 in Leeds.
