Kenneth 'Monkey' Sellar (11 August 1906 – 15 May 1989) was an English sportsman who represented the England national rugby union team and played first-class cricket for Sussex.
As a right-handed specialist batsman, Sellar appeared in 19 first-class matches and made 616 runs at 19.87. Many of those matches were with Sussex but he also played for the Royal Navy Cricket Club.[1] He made just one century in his career, an innings of 119 in a County Championship match against Somerset in Hove.[2]
He was better known as a rugby player and out of his seven caps, six were in Five Nations and the other came when England defeated Australia at Twickenham. He was a member of the 1928 Five Nations Championship team which won the triple crown.[3]
Sellar was also a celebrated commander in the Royal Navy and took part in Operation Infatuate and the Allied invasion of Sicily.
