Jack Riley (cricketer)

Jack Riley (27 April 1927 – 28 May 2008) was an English cricketer.

He appeared just once in first-class cricket, playing for Worcestershire against Cambridge University at Fenner's in May 1953, taking 3/25 in Cambridge's first innings.

Among his victims was the university's captain Robin Marlar.

[1] By far the largest part of Riley's career – more than 300 matches – was spent playing for Enfield in the Lancashire League between 1950 and 1968 and captaining them between 1956 and 1963, having previously played for Accrington.

[2] In late August 1963 he took five wickets for just one run in 4.7 eight-ball overs against Ramsbottom.
