Reginald William Henry Cherry (3 October 1901 – 22 December 1938) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played 23 first-class matches for Otago between 1919 and 1932.[1]
Born in England, Cherry came to New Zealand with his family in 1914 and was educated at Dunedin Technical College. He worked as a commercial traveller for the New Zealand company Sargood Son and Ewen. He died when he developed complications after a minor operation, just a few days after top-scoring for his club in a senior cricket match in Dunedin. He left a widow but no children.[2] [3] [4]
Cherry played cricket as a batsman. His highest score in first-class cricket was his only century, 123 not out against Canterbury in December 1925.[5]
