Tom Bokenham Reddick (17 February 1912 – 1 June 1982) was an English cricketer who played for Middlesex, Nottinghamshire and Western Province. He was born in Shanghai and died in Cape Town.
Reddick appeared in 62 first-class matches between 1931 and 1950 as a right-handed batsman who bowled occasional leg breaks. Most of his cricket in the 1930s was for Sir Julien Cahn's XI. His only full seasons of county cricket were for Nottinghamshire in 1946 and 1947.[1] In 1947, when he played as an amateur and was county coach, he captained the side against Kent and made his highest score, 139, adding 244 for the fifth wicket with Harry Winrow.[2]
After his playing career finished, Reddick coached Lancashire for two seasons before settling in South Africa, where he became a prominent coach; "his flair as a teacher of the game unearthed and developed the talents of countless young players who later made their mark". Basil D'Oliveira was one of the young players he coached.[3] For some years he wrote a weekly column for the Cape Times, "combining shrewd and constructive criticism with a delightful sense of humour".[4] In 1979 he wrote his autobiography, titled Never a Cross Bat.[3]
