About Alec Davies

Born 1962. Alec Davies is a British cricketer.

Alec George Davies (born 14 August 1962) is a Scottish former cricketer. He worked as a physical education teacher. He was a right-handed batsman and wicket-keeper and played club cricket in Scotland for Royal High School CC, Grange CC, West Lothian CC (now Linlithgow CC) and Glenrothes CC.

He took part in five One Day Internationals at the 1999 Cricket World Cup. His batting average in the 1999 World Cup was 20.75 and claimed two catches and a stumping.

He also represented Scotland in cricket at the 1998 Commonwealth Games in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

His one match for the Surrey first team was a first-class fixture against the Zimbabweans in 1985.

In 2016, Davies worked as a physical education teacher for Fife Council.
