Athol Leslie Murray (29 June 1901 – 10 January 1981) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket in 11 matches for Warwickshire in 1922.[1] He was born at Mill Hill in north London and died at Grasmere in Cumbria.
Murray was educated at St George's School, Harpenden, and Wadham College, Oxford; while at Oxford, he played in trial matches for the university cricket team but was not selected for any first-class matches. When the Oxford summer term was over in 1922, he started playing for Warwickshire as a right-handed middle-order batsman and scored 33 in his first innings in the game against Surrey.[2] He was not, however, able to better this score, although he equalled it in a match against Hampshire in which he also took, with his right-arm medium-pace bowling, the only two first-class wickets of his career, albeit when Hampshire's total was nearing 500 and as the ninth bowler tried.[3] In 17 innings in 1922 for Warwickshire, he scored only 161 runs and he did not play first-class cricket again.[1]
Murray had more success at Oxford as a golfer and won a Blue in both 1922 and 1923 by playing in the golf match against Cambridge University.[4]
