Andrew Nesbitt Colin "Nessie" Snedden (3 April 1892 – 27 September 1968) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played first-class cricket for Auckland between 1909 and 1928,[1][2] and captained New Zealand in the days before New Zealand played Test cricket.[3]
At the time of his first-class debut at the age of 17 in December 1909 he was believed to be the youngest New Zealand first-class cricketer.[4] His son Colin Snedden and grandson Martin Snedden played Test cricket for New Zealand.
