Edward Brice (cricketer)
Edward Archibald Bruce, known until August 1875 as Edward Archibald Brice (1 September 1849 – 14 November 1918) was an English cricketer who played first class cricket across six matches for Gloucestershire as a right-arm fast bowler.[1] He took 20 wickets at a bowling average of 13.20, with two five wicket hauls, both taken in 1872.[2][3] In non-first class cricket he made thirty appearances for Cheltenham College and Birkenhead Park and Somerset. He also served in the armed forces - stationed in Winchester.[4][5] In August 1875 he changed his surname from Brice to Bruce, and scorecards after that date record his new surname.[4] Born in Andhra Pradesh in British India, he died in Hove in Sussex.[1]
