Wisden Obituary
Boddington, Myles Alan, who died in Burford on February 14, 2002, aged 77,
played for the RAF against Worcestershire in 1946, his sole first-class game. Given
his reputation at Rugby as "a fast bowler of height and hostility", which earned him
selection for the Lord's Schools in 1942 and 1943, there was some interest in his
county debut. Unfortunately, opening the attack, he bowled only three overs before
pulling up injured. His left-handed batting produced 23 lower-order runs in the second
innings after a duck in the first. In 1941, he had played in Rugby's centenary match
to mark MCC's first fixture at the school, a visit celebrated in Thomas Hughes's Tom
Brown's School Days. Like Hughes, Myles Boddington captained Rugby in his final
year. His father, Robert, was a wicket-keeper who played 52 times for Lancashire.
