Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox cricketer Arthur Chudleigh Beaumont "Chud" Langton (2 March 1912 – 27 November 1942) was a South African cricketer who played in 15 Tests from 1935 to 1939.[1] Jack Fingleton rated him amongst the best medium-paced bowlers he ever saw.
Langton was educated at King Edward VII School, Johannesburg.[2] A tall, red-headed all-rounder, he came to prominence on the tour of England in 1935, when he made his Test debut. In the Second Test at Lord's he took 2 for 58 and 4 for 31 and made 44 batting at number eight in the second innings, valuable contributions to South Africa's first-ever Test victory in England, and subsequently to their 1–0 series victory.[3][4] In the "Timeless Test" in Durban in 1938–39, he bowled 91 eight-ball overs, including 56 with a strapped back during the second innings, placing him fifth on the all-time list of most balls bowled in a Test: 728.[3]
He died in Nigeria Protectorate at the age of 30 while serving as a flight lieutenant with the South African Air Force in World War II, when his Lockheed B34 Ventura bomber spun and crashed on landing.[5][3]
