Edward Brice (cricketer)

Edward Archibald Bruce, known until August 1875 as Edward Archibald Brice (1 September 1849 – 14 November 1918) was a English cricketer who played first class cricket across six matches for Gloucestershire as a right-arm fast bowler. He took 20 wickets at a bowling average of 13.20, with two five wicket hauls, both taken in 1872. In non-first class cricket he made thirty appearances for Cheltenham College and Birkenhead Park and Somerset. He also served in the armed forces - stationed in Winchester. In August 1875 he changed his surname from Brice to Bruce, and scorecards after that date record his new surname. Born in Andhra Pradesh in British India, he died in Hove in Sussex.
