Robert McDowall

Robert Murray McDowall (21 November 1821 – 5 November 1894), was a Scottish-born Australian cricketer who played two first-class cricket matches for Tasmania. He was born in Edinburgh, Scotland.

He has the distinction of having played in the first ever first-class cricket match in Australia. When McDowall bowled Duncan Cooper for 4 in Victoria's first innings, he took the first-ever first-class wicket claimed in Australia. McDowall went on to take 5/27 in the first innings, making him the first man to take a 5 wicket haul in Australian first class cricket history. Provided by Wikipedia
