Ken Hough was a right-arm pace bowler who played two Tests against England in 1958-59, taking six wickets, after unluckily missing out on a place in the tour party which visited England earlier in the year. In 1959-60 he grabbed 12 for 146 against Central Districts, and in the same season made a career-best 91 against Otago.
