Martin Hanley

Who was Martin Hanley?

Martin Andrew Hanley was a South African cricketer who played in one Test in 1949.

Hanley was a right-handed lower-order batsman and a right-arm off-break bowler. His single Test was the third match of the 1948-49 England tour series and he was the third spin bowler alongside Tufty Mann and Athol Rowan, with Rowan also bowling off-spin. He took just one wicket in the game and was dropped for the next match, being replaced by leg-spinner Fish Markham.

His nephew, Rupert Hanley, also played first-class cricket.
