George William Spencer Lyttelton

He was also one of eleven members of the Lyttelton family to play first-class cricket; primarily for Cambridge University during his time studying there.

[2] He played a number of cricket matches for Eton during his time at the school, including the annual fixture against Harrow in each of 1863, 1864 and 1865.

[9] Despite his bowling achievements in 1866, in which he claimed 16 wickets for Cambridge at an average of 14.75,[10] he was used as wicket-keeper for his first appearance in the subsequent year, taking five stumpings against the MCC.

[13] The score remained the best of his career, resulting in both his highest total batting, and his best bowling figures, being against the same side: Cambridgeshire.

[16] His batting average dropped significantly from the previous year's 37.88 to 13.57,[17] and over half of his wickets for the season came in a match against Southgate.

[20] In 1878, six years after his final first-class appearance, he scored 127 runs against the Free Foresters, his highest recorded batting total for the county.

[21] E. F. Benson described him as "grim and blunt and bearded and rich: he lived alone in a house in Hill Street into which no friend had ever penetrated.

[23] He was decorated for his service to the Prime Minister, being named a Companion of the Order of the Bath, and was also a Justice of the Peace for Worcestershire.
