From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alfred Goulder was a first class cricketer who played 2 matches for Yorkshire County Cricket Club in 1929.
He was born on August 16, 1907 in Attercliffe, Sheffield and died on June 11, 1986 in the same Yorkshire city.
A left arm orthodox spinner and left handed tail end batsman, made his debut against an 'All England XI' at Bramall Lane, Sheffield at the end of July, 1929. He didn't bat as Alan Barber (100) and Edgar Oldroyd (143) put on 203 for the second wicket to help Yorkshire post 320 for 4. He bowled 11 overs and took the wickets of Eddie Dawson and Alan Shipman for 21 before rain forced the abandonment of the final day's play. His second, and final game, was the county clash against Derbyshire CCC again at Bramall Lane, in August. Batting at 11, he fell LBW to Tommy Mitchell for 3 and his only success with the ball came when he dismissed Stan Worthington, caught by Frank Dennis, for 6. He finished with a career bowling average of 30.
He appeared for Yorkshire Second XI from 1928 to 1930.
