Colin Snedden, who bowled offbreaks at medium pace and often took the new ball, made his one Test appearance in the rain-affected one-off match against England in 1946-47, taking 0 for 46 and not being called on to bat. He made his first-class debut shortly before the war, and aside from that and one appearance in 1948-49, his career was encapsulated in a 13-month period.
