Reginald Routledge (12 June 1920 – 2011) was an English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace.
Reg Routledge was born in North Kensington, London and made his first-class debut for Middlesex against Somerset in the 1946 County Championship.
He did not play first-class cricket the following season, playing two Minor Counties Championship fixtures for Devon instead,[1] but he played first-class cricket for Middlesex again from 1948 to 1954.[2]
Routledge played a total of 65 first-class matches, including one for the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1951 against Essex.[3] As a batsman at first-class level he was initially a tailender, before developing into a middle-order batsman.[4]
In 64 first-class matches for Middlesex, he scored 1,305 runs at a batting average of 16.51, with five half centuries and two centuries.[5] His highest score of 121 came against Worcestershire in 1953.[6] An occasional bowler, Routledge took 38 wickets with his medium pace at a bowling average of 41.57, with best figures of 4/29.[7] Routledge was also an occasional player for the Middlesex Second XI in the Minor Counties Championship.[1] He was released by the county following a poor 1954 season.
He coached at the City of London School in 1957.
Reg Routledge died in Gosport, Hampshire in 2011 at the age of 91.[8]
