Bruce Hamilton Pairaudeau (14 April 1931 – 9 October 2022) was a West Indian cricketer who played in 13 Test matches between 1953 and 1957.

[3][4] In late 1952, Pairaudeau returned to British Guiana and did well enough in two first-class matches to be drafted into the team for the First Test against India in January 1953.

[1] The following winter against the England tourists, though, Pairaudeau was picked for only two of the Tests, scoring 71 in the second match but failing in the fourth.

He hit 127 against Cambridge University and a career-best 163 against Hampshire,[9] but in 31 other innings on the tour he managed fewer than 500 runs.

However, during the first innings of opening Test at Edgbaston, he did spend over eight and a half hours in the middle, despite being bowled by Fred Trueman for one run.

[17] He became eligible to represent New Zealand in 1962, but his batting form fell away, and younger men were preferred for the Test team.

[25] After moving to New Zealand, he spent the rest of his working career with an insurance company in Hamilton.
