Arthur Upton

Arthur Upton

The Honourable Colonel Arthur Percy Upton (born 13 June 1777 in England; died 22 January 1855 in Brighton, Sussex) was a noted amateur cricketer during the Napoleonic era.

Upton was an early member of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) who played several matches for its team. He played in the inaugural Gentlemen v Players match in the 1806 season and took six catches in the match, which the Gentlemen won by an innings.

Upton's career spanned the 1795 to 1808 seasons. He is known to have made 47 appearances in major cricket matches. He was a useful batsman and a good fielder but seems to have bowled only rarely.
