Dennis George A'Court (27 July 1937 – 23 May 2021) was a Welsh-born cricketer who played for Gloucestershire. A right-arm medium-fast bowler and a right-handed tail-end batsman, he played first-class cricket for Gloucestershire between 1960 and 1963.[1] He was born in Markham in Monmouthshire, a former mining village.
He took 145 first-class wickets, with a best of 6 for 25 against the South African tourists in 1960: Wisden noted that he "shocked the South Africans with his accuracy, liveliness, and disconcerting swing and movement of the ball."[2] [3] He took five wickets in an innings on five occasions.
