R. S. Lucas' cricket team in the West Indies in 1894–95

A team of amateur cricketers under the captaincy of Robert Slade Lucas toured the West Indies in the 1894–95 season, playing matches between January and April 1895.

[1] The idea for the tour was mainly that of Dr R. B. Anderson, who had lived in Tobago for 23 years.

[2] The Royal Mail Steam Packet Company gave special terms for the round trip and concessions were made with regard to the telegraphic transmission of news.

Indeed, only these two players ever played a significant amount of first-class cricket in England.

The bowling for the tourists was largely in the hands of Bromley-Davenport and Bush who each took over 50 wickets in the first-class matches.

Lucas's XI replied with 303 giving Barbados a first innings lead of 214.
