Description

Georgetown, Ascension Island born William Delacombe became secretary of Derbyshire County Cricket Club in 1889. He scored 86 in a match for the Incogniti in 1892 and made his playing debut for Derbyshire, then out of the County Championship, also in the 1892 season. He made his initial first class appearance in the 1894 season against Surrey and played sporadically between 1896 and 1900 with three games in the 1897 season, two games in the 1896 season and 1900 season and one game in other years.

Delacombe played 13 innings in 10 first class matches with an average of 9.50 and a top score of 23 not out. He bowled twelve overs and did not take a wicket, and took 2 catches. He was described as “a good outfield and a sure catch, and useful with both bat and ball.”

In 1897, playing for Incogniti, Delacombe took all ten wickets in an innings including a hat-trick. He continued as secretary of Derbyshire until his retirement in 1908.
