Biography
Markham was a right-arm leg-break bowler and a right-handed lower-order batsman. His single Test was the fourth match of the 1948–49 England tour series, and he was the third spin bowler alongside Tufty Mann and Athol Rowan. He scored 20 in his single innings and took just one wicket in the game and was dropped for the next match.[2]
He played first-class cricket for Natal from 1946 to 1950. His best figures were 7 for 106 against Western Province in the 1947–48 Currie Cup.[3] His highest score was 134, batting at number nine against Orange Free State a few weeks later, when he went to the wicket at 166 for 7 and added 174 for the eighth wicket with Ossie Dawson; he then took three wickets in each inning to give Natal an innings' victory.[4]
He is the only Test cricketer to be born in Swaziland.
