Robert John Richards (born 5 June 1934) is a former English cricketer. Richards was a right-handed batsman who bowled fielded as a wicket-keeper. He was born at Winchester, Hampshire.
Richards made his first-class appearance for Essex at the age of 36 against Jamaica during their tour of England in 1970.[1] In a three-day match which was heavily curtailed due to rain, Richards wasn't called upon to bat, while keeping wicket he took no catches and made no stumpings.[2] He wasn't called upon by Essex again following this match, though did continue to play the occasional Second XI match for the county.[3]
