Captain Bertram Sutton Evans, MVO (17 December 1872 – 2 March 1919) was an officer of the British Royal Navy and cricketer.

Cricket

Evans, a right-handed batsman, made his first-class debut in the 1900 County Championship for Hampshire against Warwickshire. Evans played one further match for Hampshire in the 1900 season against Sussex.

Nine years later Evans returned to play for Hampshire in the 1909 season, playing his first match on his return against the touring Australians. Evans played two matches for the club in that year's County Championship against Derbyshire and Middlesex.

Evans joined the Royal Navy. Serving as a lieutenant, he was in September 1902 posted to the Naval School of Telegraphy at HMS Victory for signals course,[1] then to the HMS Duke of Wellington later that year.[2]

Evans died in Paris, France on 2 March 1919.
