Beverley Hamilton Lyon (19 January 1902 – 22 June 1970) was an English cricketer who played for Oxford University and Gloucestershire.[1] He was a bespectacled middle-order batsman and a fine close fielder who held forthright and, for his time, outspoken views on cricket captaincy and cricket traditions and who was given full rein by his county, Gloucestershire, to express his views as captain for six years from 1929.
