Description

Haughton Green, Cheshire born Samuel Chapman had a cricket career that spanned more than a quarter of a century, playing for Derbyshire between 1900 and 1926. Batting right-handed and bowling right-arm medium pace, he was He was an effective all-rounder and scored over 14,000 runs and took over 800 wickets in his first class career.

Cadman made his debut for Derbyshire in May 1900 with an unnotable performance in a match against Lancashire. He played in two further matches that year, making his bowling debut against Surrey when he took a single wicket. He played five matches in 1901 but missed a season in 1902. From 1903 he became a regular player, remaining a stalwart all rounder until 1926, and in a match against Nottinghamshire he took 5-42. In 1904 he scored his first century in a match against Essex. He had a very successful bowling season in 1905 taking 5-94 against the Australians, 6-27 against Lancashire and 5-91 against Yorkshire. In a match against Warwickshire he took 5-46 and 6-46 in a convincing win for Derbyshire which brought his total wickets to 100.

Over the next few years Derbyshire remained close to or at the bottom of the County Championship table despite his 6-41 against Hampshire in 1907, and centuries against Warwickshire in 1908 and Leicestershire in 1909 and 1911. In 1913 he took 7-39 against Essex and 6-27 against Somerset and scored another century against Leicestershire. In 1914 he scored a century against Worcestershire and took 6-27 against Lancashire.

Following the First World War Cadman’s career best innings return of 8-70 and 6-34 in the same match against Northamptonshire was not enough to win even that match for Derbyshire in the unsuccessful 1920 season. Described as “one of Derbyshire’s best and most reliable run-getters”, in the 1920’s he was still sharing the bowling with Bestwick, both well into their 40’s, taking 5-20 against Gloucestershire in 1921, 5-41 against the West Indies in 1923 and 5-36 against Sussex in 1924.

He was batting alongside Leonard Oliver, Guy Jackson and Harry Storer and in 1924 he scored a century against Northamptonshire. Cadman’s last full season was in 1925. He played just one first class match in 1926, but carried on club cricket as for Lightcliffe club in Yorkshire. Subsequently Cadman became the club coach, and talent scout, picking players such as Elijah Carrington in his tours of local clubs. He also umpired friendly matches in the 1930’s.

Cadman played 690 innings in his 377 first class matches, scoring 14,078 runs at an average of 21.46 with eight centuries and 61 half centuries and a highest score of 126. As a bowler he took 807 wickets at an average of 25.24 with a best performance of 8-70, with two ten wicket matches and 30 five wicket innings.
