About Robert Hadley

Born 1951. Robert Hadley is a British cricketer.

Robert John Hadley (born 22 October 1951) is a former Welsh cricketer. Hadley was a right-handed batsman who bowled left-arm fast-medium. He was born at Neath, Glamorgan.

While studying at St John's College, Cambridge, Hadley made his first-class debut for Cambridge University against Warwickshire at Fenner's in 1971. He made six further first-class appearances in that season for the university. In that same season he also made two first-class appearances for Glamorgan, against Leicestershire and Somerset in the County Championship. These were to be his only first-class appearances for Glamorgan. He continued to play first-class cricket for Cambridge University in 1972 and 1973, making seventeen further first-class appearances, the last of which came against Oxford University in The University Match at Lord's. These figures were one of two five wicket hauls he took for the university and came against Sussex in 1972. He also made two first-class appearances for a combined Oxford and Cambridge Universities team, against the touring Australians in 1972 and the touring New Zealanders in 1973. He had little success in these matches, taking just a single wicket.

He became a doctor.
