Murray Fergus Muir (16 February 1928 - 5 October 2004) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played one first-class match for Otago during the 1949–50 season.[1]
Muir was born at Dunedin in 1928.[2] An off break bowler who played club cricket for the Grange club in Dunedin, he played for an Otago side against Southland in December 1949 before playing in his only first-class fixture later in the season. Against Canterbury at Carisbrook he did not take a wicket in five overs and recorded a duck in the only innings in which he batted.[3] A contemporary newspaper article in the 'Otago Daily Times, described him as a slow-medium bowler who "swings the ball very late and bowls an excellent off-break".[4]
Muir married netball player and coach Lois Osborne in 1955; the couple went on to have three children.[5] He died at Anderson's Bay in Dunedin in 2004 at the age of 76.[1]
