Robert Hector Catterall (10 July 1900 – 3 January 1961) was a South African cricketer who played in 24 Test matches from 1922 to 1931.[1]

Catterall was a right-handed batsman, usually batting in the middle order but sometimes in the earlier part of his career used as an opener, and a right-arm medium-pace bowler often used to break troublesome partnerships, though he did not take any Test wickets until the final series that he played in.
