He was promoted to lieutenant on 16 April 1890,[4] and stationed in the Far East, where he played cricket for the Straits Settlements, playing three matches against Hong Kong between 1890 and 1891.[5] Following promotion to captain on 2 January 1899, he served during the Second Boer War in South Africa,[2] and was Superintendent of Gymnasia until July 1902,[6] when he returned to his regiment.[7] He took part in some Minor Counties cricket for Devon in the first years of the 20th century.[8] Whilst stationed in South Africa after the end of the Boer war, he made his first-class debut in January 1906, playing for the South African Army against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) team,[9] who were in fact the touring England cricket team.[10] He played one further first-class match, playing for the Army against the Royal Navy at Lord's in May 1912.[9] He was killed on active service at the Battle of Neuve Chapelle in March 1915.[2][11] References1. ^CricketArchive profile {{DEFAULTSORT:Higginbotham, Charles}}2. ^1 2 3 Wisden Cricketers' Almanack 1916, Obituaries in 1915 3. ^Cricinfo profile 4. ^Hart´s Army list, 1903 5. ^Other matches played by Charles Higginbotham {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121015013735/http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Players/24/24521/Other_matches.html |date=15 October 2012 }} at CricketArchive 6. ^{{London Gazette |issue=27462 |date=8 August 1902 |page=5101 }} 7. ^{{London Gazette|issue=27468 |page=5535 |date=26 August 1902}} 8. ^Minor Counties Championship matches played by Charles Higginbotham at CricketArchive 9. ^1 First-class matches played by Charles Higginbotham at CricketArchive 10. ^MCC in South Africa 1905/06 {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070107011146/http://www.cricketarchive.co.uk/Archive/Seasons/RSA/1905-06_RSA_Marylebone_Cricket_Club_in_South_Africa_1905-06.html |date=7 January 2007 }} at CricketArchive 11. ^CWGC entry 13 : 1866 births|1915 deaths|People educated at Cargilfield School|People educated at Rugby School|Northamptonshire Regiment officers|British Army personnel of the Second Boer War|British Army personnel of World War I|British military personnel killed in World War I|English cricketers|Straits Settlements cricketers|Devon cricketers|British Army cricketers|Graduates of the Royal Military College, Sandhurst |
