Finlay William Jackson (21 November 1901 in Belfast, Ireland – 13 March 1941 in Belfast) [http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Players/26/26787/26787.html Cricket Archive profile] ] was an Irish cricketer and Rugby Union player.

Rugby Union

Jackson played just once for the Ireland national rugby union team, a Five Nations match against England on 10 February 1923. [ [http://www.scrum.com/1200_1205.php?player=23999 Rugby Union statistics at scrum.com] ] He would play much more for Ireland at his other sport, cricket.

Cricket

A right-handed batsman and leg spin bowler, Jackson played eight times for the Ireland cricket team between 1923 and 1933 [http://www.cricketeurope4.net/CSTATZ/irelandall/ire1500.htm CricketEurope Stats Zone profile] ] including three first-class matches. [http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Players/26/26787/First-Class_Matches.html First-class matches played by Finlay Jackson at Cricket Archive] ]

He made his debut for Ireland in August 1923, playing against Wales in Cardiff. His second game for Ireland was also against Wales, this time in Belfast, and this was followed by his first match against Scotland, which was also his first first-class match. He rounded off the year with two matches against the MCC. He also played that year for a North of Ireland team against Wales. [ [http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Scorecards/11/11196.html Scorecard] of North of Ireland v Wales match, 27 June 1924 at Cricket Archive]

He played twice for Ireland in 1925, against Scotland and Wales, which were his final first-class games. He then spent eight years away from the Ireland team, returning for one final match in August 1933, against the MCC at Lord's.

tatistics

In all matches for Ireland, Jackson scored 349 runs at an average of 29.08, with a top score of 71 against Scotland in July 1924, his only half-century. He bowled just two overs, going for 30 runs without taking a wicket in his last match against the MCC. In first-class cricket, he scored 154 runs at an average of 38.50, with a top score of 71. He did not bowl in first-class cricket.
