Colin McIver (23 January 1881 – 13 May 1954) was an English cricketer. He played for Essex between 1902 and 1934.[1]
Just after the Second World War, Colin McIver lived in Ashtead, Surrey. He was President of the local Ashtead Cricket Club. McIver was a great friend of Sir Henry Dudley Gresham Leveson Gower, who was an English cricketer (from the Leveson-Gower family). He played first-class cricket for Oxford University, as did Colin McIver, and he also captained Surrey and England.
Colin McIver instituted the annual Leverson-Gower v Ashtead annual cricket event.
