Arthur William Seccull (14 September 1868 – 20 July 1945) was a cricketer who played one Test match for South Africa in 1896.^[1]

Cricket career

An all-rounder, Seccull was a member of the first South African team to tour England in 1894. No Tests or first-class matches were played on the tour. He scored 355 runs with a top score of 63 against Glamorgan, when he made the highest score in the match, but took only four wickets on the tour.^[1]

In South Africa in 1895–96 he played in the Third Test at Cape Town against the England side under Lord Hawke, scoring 6 and 17 not out and taking two wickets for 37 runs.^[2]

Seccull's provincial cricket in South Africa was mainly for Transvaal, though he also appeared for Kimberley and Western Province. He played in consecutive Currie Cup-winning finals for different teams. In the first, in 1893–94, he took his best first-class bowling figures of 6 for 48 in the second innings to help Western Province to an innings victory in the final against Natal.^[3] A year later he made his highest first-class score of 64, the highest score in the match, to help Transvaal to victory over Western Province.^[4]
