Plum Lewis

Percy Tyson "Plum" Lewis (2 October 1884, Cape Town, Cape Province – 30 January 1976, Durban, Natal) was a South African cricketer who played in one Test in 1913.

After studying at Oxford University, Lewis played a few first-class matches, mostly for Western Province beginning in 1907-08. He made 151 in 185 minutes for Western Province against the MCC in the first match of the MCC's tour in 1913-14.[1] He was unsuccessful in the match for Cape Province against the MCC two weeks later, but was still selected for the First Test. He was "c Woolley b Barnes 0" in each innings and South Africa lost by an innings and 157 runs,[2] and Lewis was not selected for any further Tests.

He served in France in the First World War as a lieutenant-colonel and won the MC and Bar before being severely wounded in the leg.[3] He also served as an officer in the Second World War, but not in combat.[4] He worked as a lawyer.[5]
