Robert Strickland Gilbert Scott (26 April 1909 – 26 August 1957) played first-class cricket for Oxford University and Sussex between 1930 and 1934.[1] A right-handed middle-order batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler, he was Sussex captain in a few matches in 1932 and regularly in 1933, at first unofficially because of the ill-health of K. S. Duleepsinhji, and then as the official captain later in the 1933 season.
