Maurice Fletcher Tremlett (5 July 1923 – 30 July 1984)[1] was an English cricketer, who played for Somerset, Central Districts and England.

For a couple of years in the late 1940s, Tremlett looked as though he might be the answer to some of England's post-war cricketing woes. A tall, curly-haired all-rounder, Tremlett had a whippy fast-medium bowling action that moved the ball off the pitch and was a pugnacious right-handed batsman, strong at driving.
