About Malcolm Kerr (cricketer)
- Malcolm McLeod Kerr (born 28 August 1877 in Spanish Town, St Catherine, Jamaica, death details unknown) was a West Indian cricketer who toured with the first West Indian touring side to England in 1900. He hadn't played in a single important match before being selected for the 1900 tour.
- This was largely because so few big matches were played by Jamaica.
- He had not played against Priestley's side in 1896-97, the last time any team had toured in Jamaica.
- He was described as "Captain of the Melbourne and member of the Kingston C.C.
- In 1898-99 he played in 34 matches, 35 innings making 1,087 runs, three times not out, most in an innings 97, average 33.95.
- during the same season he bowled 144 overs, of which 28 were maidens, 37 wickets, average 9.57.".
- He proved to be a disappointment and played in only four matches, against Worcestershire, Minor Counties, Staffordshire and Norfolk scoring just 29 runs and not bowling. He played for Jamaica against Bennett's side in 1901-02, against Lord Brackley's side in 1904-05, against Trinidad in 1905-06 and finally against the Philadelphians in 1908-09.
- In these matches his batting average was just 11.73 with a top score of 44.
- He "staggered humanity by taking 6-30 in an innings, 9 for 100 in the match, against the Philadelphians, having scarcely been considered a bowler at all before", his very last match for Jamaica. His brother Henry also played for Jamaica.
