Herbert Strudwick, English cricketer and coach (d. 1970)
Herbert Strudwick (28 January 1880 – 14 February 1970) was an English wicket-keeper. During his career, his record of 1,493 dismissals is the third-highest by any wicket-keeper in the history of first-class cricket.
Not much of a batsman, he nonetheless twice added over 100 for the last wicket with Bill Hitch (one of only four pairs with more than one tenth-wicket century stand in first-class cricket).
