Annesley Harman

Annesley Frederick George Harman (10 November 1864 – 18 June 1895) was a cricketer who played first-class cricket for Canterbury from 1889 to 1894.

Annesley Harman was the third son of Richard James Strachan Harman, a leading Canterbury pioneer. He attended Christ's College, Christchurch, from 1875 to 1883, excelling in sport. When he left school he joined Harman and Stevens, the law firm of which his father was a partner.

For many years Harman was one of the leading batsmen in Christchurch senior club cricket, but perhaps owing to nerves he was unable to transfer this form to inter-provincial level. He was sometimes more effective as a bowler, as in his first match for Canterbury when, having not bowled in Wellington's first innings, he took 5 for 43 in the second to help Canterbury to a 39-run victory.

Harman died of pneumonia in June 1895, aged 30.
