Sir Basil Eden Garth Eddis (17 September 1881 – 5 November 1971) was an Anglo-Indian businessman from Calcutta who served as president of the Bengal Chamber of Commerce and Industry from 1927 to 1928.
[3] During the 1908 English season, Eddis was selected to play for the MCC against Cambridge University, a match that had first-class status.
The match was notable for Frank Tarrant's hat-trick, and also for every MCC batsman passing double figures in the second innings.
[7] For All-Burma, making only its second recorded appearance (and first since 1894),[8] he again opened the batting, but his 20 runs was overshadowed by the next batsman in, FitzAlan Drayson, who scored 137 to help Burma to an innings victory.
[10] The following year, at which time he was employed as a partner with Gillanders, Arbuthnot, and Co., he was elected president of the Bengal Chamber of Commerce, serving a one-year term.
