Background
O'Brien was born in Holyhead, Anglesey, Wales. He was a cousin of the Gwynn brothers, a famous Irish cricket family.[1] Three of them also represented Ireland at cricket. His nephew, Luke White played for Middlesex.[2]
Playing career
A right-handed batsman,[2] O'Brien made his first-class debut playing for Ireland against Cambridge University in May 1902.[3] This is his only match for Ireland.[1] He later played twice for the MCC against Oxford University, in 1906 and 1907.[3]
He died in Alexandria, Egypt[2])
gollark: Er, 9, not 10.
gollark: Hmm, I'd really expect that to print `10`, weird.
gollark: Unrelatedly, it turns out that the large amount of 2-letter TLDs which exist now combined with the fact that 36^3 is a lot means that you can get 6-letter domains, and I mean 6 letter including the TLD and dot.
gollark: It also seems like a terrible protocol, design-wise.
gollark: I started actually doing backups instead of just having replicated copies of things recently, and I have something like 150GB of them.
