Cyril Tyler (26 January 1911 – 25 January 1996) was an English academic and cricketer. He played for Gloucestershire between 1936 and 1938.[1] He took 33 wickets, with his career best performance was 5 for 116 against Middlesex at Lord's.[1] He started his career in the Heavy Woollen League in his native Ossett, Yorkshire, which led to speculation about a future selection in the England cricket team.[1]
After retirement from cricket, Tyler transitioned into the academia as a professor of agricultural chemistry at Cirencester Agricultural College in 1939.[1] He later became the Vice-Chancellor of Reading University in 1968, holding this role until his retirement in 1976.[1][2] He was married to Rita Tyler.[3]
