About Warwick Reed Wroth

Lived 1825 – 1867 (aged 41–42). Warwick Reed Wroth was a British cricketer.

Warwick Reed Wroth (c. 1825 – 11 April 1867) was an English clergyman and a cricketer who played in two first-class cricket matches, one each for Cambridge University Cricket Club and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), both of them in 1848. He was born at Northchurch in Hertfordshire, though the precise date of his birth is not known, and he died at Kensington in London.

Wroth was educated at Uppingham School and Emmanuel College, Cambridge. As a cricketer, he appeared in the two matches between Cambridge University and the MCC in 1848, playing once for each side, but had little success in either match; it is not known whether he batted right- or left-handed and there is no record that he bowled in either game.

Wroth's brother Henry played first-class cricket for Cambridge University between 1844 and 1846; his son, Warwick William Wroth, one of four sons and four daughters by his second marriage, became an expert on coins and a contributor to the Dictionary of National Biography.
