| Summary | Text | This research article investigates the numerous cricketing surnames that appear in the Sherlock Holmes stories, analysing whether Arthur Conan Doyle consciously borrowed names from contemporary cricketers he knew or followed. Drawing on cricket archives, Wisden, and earlier scholarship (notably John I. Marder), it evaluates specific cases and distinguishes probable influences from mere coincidence. |
