The son of Lieutenant-Colonel George Fryer, he was born at Rugby in February 1834, and where he was educated at Rugby School.[1] From Rugby he went up to Trinity College, Cambridge.[2] While studying at Cambridge, he played first-class cricket for Cambridge University Cricket Club from 1854 to 1856, making four appearances.[3] He scored 21 runs in his four matches,[4] in addition to taking 6 wickets from 12 balls bowled, a wicket every 2 balls.[5] Having appeared in The University Match against Oxford University at Lord's in 1854, Fryer gained a cricket blue.[2]
