Hugh Conn McCall (29 March 1940 – 7 June 2002), usually known by his middle name, was an Irish cricketer. A right-handed batsman and left-arm orthodox spin bowler,[1] he played 15 times for the Ireland cricket team in the 1960s[2][3] including seven first-class matches.[4] His son Mark played rugby union for Ireland.[5]
Cricket career
Conn McCall was scheduled to make his debut for Ireland in their annual match against Scotland in 1964, but the match was abandoned without a ball being bowled. He finally made his debut a few days later, playing against the MCC[5] in a first-class match.[4] His first match in 1965 was also against the MCC, at Lord's, and he also played against New Zealand, Scotland and Hampshire that year.[2]
He played three times in 1966, against Scotland, the MCC and Worcestershire, and four times in 1967, including a match against India. His final year in the Irish side was in 1968, playing twice against Australia before finishing his career as it should have started, playing against Scotland[2] in a first-class match.[4] He later served as an Irish selector in the early 1980s and as president of the Irish Cricket Union in 1992.[5]
Statistics
In all matches for Ireland, he scored 541 runs at an average of 20.04, with a top score of 81 against the MCC in his debut match, one of three half-century for Ireland. He bowled just one delivery,[2] conceding the winning single against New Zealand in 1965.[5]
