William Bedster (1734 – 1805) was an English cricketer who played during the late 18th century.

Bedster was born in 1734 at Walberton near Chichester in Sussex.[1][2] He made his first appearance in first-class cricket in 1777, playing in an England side[a] against a Hampshire XI. In a career which lasted until 1794 he played in 59 matches which have been given first-class status, scoring 1,335 runs and taking at least 26 wickets.[b] He played for a wide variety of sides, appearing most frequently for England and Middlesex sides in first-class matches.[2]

Bedster was employed as a butler for five years by Charles Bennet, 4th Earl of Tankerville at his Mount Felix estate at Walton-on-Thames.[5][6][7] During this time he played for Chertsey Cricket Club.[8] He was frequently used as a given man by other sides. After his playing career was over, Bedster moved to Chelsea where he was an innkeeper.[5] He died in 1805.[1][2] A road in Molesey in Surrey is named after him.[5]

Notes

  1. ^ During the time Bedster played, England sides were not representative of the country. Instead, they were sides composed of players from a range of locations brought together to play against another side.[3]
  2. ^ In the period during which Bedster played, wickets taken by bowlers were normally only recorded if they were bowled. Other means of dismissal were not credited to any bowler.[4] As a result the number of wickets he took is uncertain, with the total of 26 being a minimum.
