Thomas Mellish
Appearance
Thomas Mellish (1773 – 29 July 1837 in Uxbridge, Middlesex) was an English amateur cricketer who made 52 known appearances in first-class cricket matches between 1791 and 1815.
He was an early member of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) whose teams he most often represented.[1] He was an occasional patron of cricket, his own T Mellish's XI being active in a number of matches between 1801 and 1807.
He was educated at Eton but surprisingly little is known about Mellish, although he was undoubtedly a prominent amateur player of his time. He is not mentioned in Scores & Biographies except in the scorecards.
