Barry Jarman

Barrington Noel Jarman OAM (born 17 February 1936 in Hindmarsh, South Australia) is a former Australian Test cricketer and International Cricket Council (ICC) Match Referee.

Born in Hindmarsh South Australia, the stockily-built Jarman made his South Australian district cricket debut as a 14-year-old wicketkeeper, and debuted for West Torrens Football Club Colts in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL) junior competition three years later.

A leg fracture curtailed Jarman's football career and he turned to umpiring while concentrating on cricket. He made his first-class cricket debut on 16 December 1955 for South Australia against New South Wales at the Adelaide Oval, scoring 14 and nine and taking three catches.

Fourteen months and seven first-class matches later he was selected in the Australian team touring New Zealand, where he played in the unofficial Test series. Jarman was then selected as one of two wicket keepers for the tour of South Africa in 1957/58 but was overlooked in favour of Wally Grout, who then became Australia's first choice wicket keeper.
