}}Andrew Labatt (1 March 1869 – 27 April 1922) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played first-class cricket for Canterbury and Auckland between 1888 and 1898.[1]

Early life and cricket career

Labatt was born in London. His father was a clergyman in Swindon, Wiltshire. He attended several schools, finally St Edward's School, Oxford, where he was prominent in sport, before moving to New Zealand in 1887.[2]

Labatt was a middle-order batsman and a bowler who sometimes opened the attack. He was short of stature, "handsome and debonair", and a fine slips fieldsman.[2] He played for Canterbury soon after arriving in New Zealand. In his second first-class match, in January 1889, he opened the bowling against Otago and bowled throughout the first innings, taking 5 for 17 as Otago were dismissed for 47.[3] In his next match, against Wellington in December 1889, he made the highest score in a low-scoring match with 47 in the first innings.[4]

When New South Wales toured New Zealand in 1893-94 they were undefeated in their first three first-class matches, but when they played Canterbury, Labatt made 42 and took five wickets in an innings victory for Canterbury.[5] He was included in the team a few days later for New Zealand's first first-class representative match, against New South Wales in Christchurch. New Zealand lost heavily, but Labatt top-scored in the second innings with 17.[6] He also played the next time New Zealand played New South Wales, in 1895-96. This time he was more successful in the field, with four fine catches, and New Zealand won by 142 runs.[7][2]

He moved to Auckland a few weeks after the match against New South Wales, and played two matches for Auckland in 1897-98, captaining the team in his last match.[8][9]

Later life

Labatt married Gertrude Constance Rowe, whose father was also an English clergyman, in Auckland in March 1896.[10] He worked in Auckland as an accountant.[13]

He served in the New Zealand Expeditionary Force during World War I.[11] He was on the permanent medical staff of the transport ship RMS Tahiti in 1918 when an outbreak of Spanish influenza caused high mortality amongst the troops on board.[12]

When he died in 1922 Gertrude survived him, along with four sons and a daughter.[12]
