Sandhurst England

Sandhurst Pearce England (4 June 1856 – 20 April 1903) was an Australian cricketer who played two matches of first-class cricket for Wellington in New Zealand in 1879. England was born in 1856 in the Victorian goldfields town of Bendigo, when it was still called Sandhurst, the fourth of six children of Elizabeth (née Pearce) and Alfred England. In 1879 he was working as a teller for the Bank of New Zealand in Wellington when he was selected to play for the provincial cricket team. In his second match for Wellington, an extremely low-scoring match in which 210 runs were scored for the loss of 40 wickets, England opened the innings and was the top scorer on either side, with 29 in Wellington's first innings total of 51. He was ninth out and was praised for his "exceedingly fine play".
