Bryce John Postles (22 February 1931 – 19 January 2011) was a New Zealand cricketer.[1] He played 19 first-class matches for Auckland between 1952 and 1957.[2][3] His father played for Auckland in the 1920s and 1930s.[4]
Born in Auckland, Postles attended Auckland Grammar School.[5] After his debut first-class season in 1952–53, The Cricket Almanack of New Zealand described him thus: "Very promising right-hand aggressive batsman with full range of strokes."[6] In the first innings of his second match, on New Year's Day 1953, he scored 80, "a splendid exhibition of powerful stroke play",[7] but that remained his highest score, and he played no first-class cricket after the 1956–57 season.[8]
