Edward Ogden

Edward Russell Ogden (17 June 1862 – 15 May 1913) was a Canadian-born American first-class cricketer and medical doctor.

The son of Dr. Edwy J. Ogden, he was born in June 1862 at Oakville, Canada West. He was educated at the Upper Canada College, where he played for the college cricket team, before following in his father's footsteps by becoming a medical doctor.

He was initially a member of the Toronto Cricket Club, in addition to playing minor matches for Canada against the United States in 1881, 1883 and 1884. Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed in the United States first innings by Walter Clark for 49 runs, while in their second innings he shared in a match-winning partnership of 26 with William Bottomore in which Ogden contributed 16 runs. With his right-arm medium pace bowling, he bowled eight wicketless overs in the Philadelphia first innings. He returned to play for Canada as captain on their 1887 tour of England, scoring 701 runs and taking 91 wickets. Wisden noted that he "was clearly the best all-round player in the side". Ogden died at Chicago in May 1913.
