Reginald Studd
English cricketer (1873-1948)
Reginald Augustus Studd (18 December 1873 — 3 February 1948) was an English first-class cricketer.
The son of Edward Studd, he was born at Tedworth House in Wiltshire in December 1873. He was educated at Eton College, where he was the youngest of six brothers to play for the college cricket team, in addition to playing rackets. From Eton, he in 1892 matriculated to Trinity College, Cambridge. While studying at Cambridge, he made his debut in first-class cricket for the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) against Cambridge University at Lord's in 1894. The following season, he established himself in the Cambridge side and made ten appearances. He played in the 1895 University Match at Lord's, when Cambridge defeated a strong Oxford side. For Cambridge in 1895, he scored 384 runs at an average of 25.60, with a highest score of 96 not out. Later in the 1895 season, Studd made three appearances for Hampshire. One of these came against the MCC, with the other two coming in the County Championship, with him making 93 against Sussex.

Why this record matters
The phrase “english cricketer (1873-1948)” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7308883. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1873, 1948, 1892 and 1894.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
