About Robert McIntosh

Lived 1907 – 1988 (aged 80). Robert McIntosh was a British cricketer.

Robert Ian Fanshawe McIntosh (19 August 1907 – 21 March 1988) was an English cricketer born in Darjeeling, India. He was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium-fast.

McIntosh was educated at Uppingham School in Rutland, where he played for the school cricket team and for three years he was the mainstay of their bowling attack, captaining the side in 1926, a season in which he took 45 wickets at a bowling average of 11.45. He later went to University College, Oxford, where he played for the University Cricket Club, making his first-class debut in 1927 against the Harlequins. 1927 was also the year that McIntosh played his only first-class match for the West of England when they played the touring New Zealanders at the County Ground, Exeter; additionally in 1927 he also made three appearances for Devon in the Minor Counties Championship. From 1927 to 1929, McIntosh made 21 first-class appearances for Oxford University, playing his final match for them against Surrey.

McIntosh later returned to the British Raj, where he played a single first-class match each for the Europeans (India) against the Indians and for Madras against the Marylebone Cricket Club, both in 1934. He died in Budleigh Salterton, Devon on 21 March 1988.
