Richard Bright Canney (1852 – 17 June 1887) was an English-born cricketer and doctor who practised in New Zealand and Australia. Born in Thanet in Kent, Canney arrived in New Zealand in January 1878. While working as a general practitioner in Wakefield, Canney was selected to captain the Nelson cricket team in its annual first-class match against Wellington in April 1878. He won the toss and, batting in the middle order, scored 7 and 15 – above-average scores in a match in which 40 wickets fell for 297 runs – and Nelson won by 85 runs.[1][2][3] It was his only first-class cricket match. He moved to Australia in the early 1880s and practised in Scone and then in Gunnedah, where he was highly regarded for his work among the poorer citizens. On Thursday 16 June 1887 Canney was thrown from his horse in Conadilly Street, Gunnedah, and suffered a fractured skull. He died of his injuries early the next morning.[4] References1. ^{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/2/2160.html| title = Wellington v Nelson 1877-78| publisher = CricketArchive| subscription = yes | accessdate =21 March 2019}} 2. ^{{cite news | work= Evening Post | date=13 April 1878 | page=2 | title= Nelson| url=https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/EP18780413.2.19}} 3. ^{{cite news | work= New Zealand Mail | date=20 April 1878 | page=14 | title= Town News| url=https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/NZMAIL18780420.2.33}} 4. ^{{cite news | work= The Maitland Mercury and Hunter River General Advertiser | date=21 June 1887 | page=7 | title= Local News| url=https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/18892763}} External links
