Quick Facts Personal information, Full name ...

Despite his short career, in 1946 he not only won his county cap for Northamptonshire, but also captained the county on 18 occasions.[1] A Wisden writer much later called him a "somewhat miscast captain".[2]

Murray-Willis passed fifty only once in his first-class career: making 54 for Northamptonshire against his former county of Worcestershire, in a high-scoring match at Kidderminster in July 1946.[3]
