Robert Malcom Gwynn (born 26 April 1877 in Ramelton, County Donegal, Ireland; died 25 June 1962 in Dublin [http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Players/29/29854/29854.html Cricket Archive] profile] ) was an Irish cricketer.

Playing career

Gwynn made his first-class debut for Dublin University against the MCC on 20 May 1895 and three days later played for the MCC, against Ireland. [ [http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/100/100529.html Scorecard of Ireland v MCC match in Dublin in May 1895] ] He played three further first-class matches for the University throughout the year, two against Cambridge University and one against Leicestershire. Six years later, he played his only match for Ireland, a two-day match against South Africa in June 1901.

He once enjoyed the distinction of bowling W. G. Grace for a first ball duck. [Wisden Cricketer's Almanack, 1964 [http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/wisdenalmanack/content/story/228439.html Obituaries] ]
