Biography
Jonathan Harvey attended Marlborough College, where he captained the First XI, before going up to Christ's College, Cambridge.[2] An opening bowler, he gained his blue in 1965.[3] His best first-class figures were 5 for 28 against Somerset in 1965, in a match that Somerset nevertheless won by an innings.[4] He took 3 for 47 and 4 for 78 against Glamorgan a week later.[5] The next match was the University Match, in which he took three wickets and took part in an unbroken tenth-wicket partnership with Rupert Roopnaraine that yielded no runs but prevented defeat.[2]
He became a barrister in London.[6]
Harvey died on 24 May 2026, aged 82.[7]
