Samuel Colchin (fl. 1747 – 1779) was an English cricketer who played in the 1770s.
A nephew of Robert Colchin,[1] a noted single wicket cricketer of the first half of the 18th century,[2] he played in a total of 10 first-class matches,[3] four of which were for Kent, all as a given man[a] against Hampshire. He played five matches for England (i.e., the "rest" of England), and one top-level appearance for Hampshire.[1]
Colchin was christened at Bromley in Kent in June 1747.[1] He is last mentioned in June 1779 playing in a five-a-side single wicket match at the Artillery Ground for John Sackville, 3rd Duke of Dorset's team against Sir Horatio Mann's team.[5]
