James Rice (cricketer)

James Rice (dates unknown) was an English amateur cricketer during the Napoleonic Wars.

Career

Rice made 3 known appearances in first-class matches from 1811 to 1813.[1] He is not known to have been attached to any particular club although, as an amateur who played all his first-class games at Lord's Middle Ground, it is possible he was a member of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), which was based at that venue.

The matches in which Rice appeared were the only first-class fixtures of the three seasons in question. Cricket at this time had been badly impacted by a loss of both investment and manpower caused by the Napoleonic Wars. The matches were also the only first-class matches recorded on Lord's Middle Ground so Rice played his entire first-class career at that ground.[2]

gollark: You could use Amulet if you wanted. That's statically typed and also insane.
gollark: That is static typing, not OOP.
gollark: What would *you* require for OOPness?
gollark: You could do it via insane hacks with module resolution I think.
