Cecil Reginald Napp Maxwell (21 May 1913 – 25 September 1973) was an English first-class cricketer.
After attending Brighton College, Cecil Maxwell was recruited by Sir Julien Cahn to play in his professional cricket team.[1] Maxwell represented the Gentlemen versus the Players at Lord's in 1935. He played in 44 first-class matches for Nottinghamshire, MCC, Middlesex and Worcestershire as a right-handed batsman and a wicket-keeper between 1932 and 1951. His highest first-class innings (and only hundred) – 268 for Sir Julien Cahn's XI against Leicestershire in 1935, made in 190 minutes – is the highest by any player batting at number eight.[2]
