Does any one know of a player called Cuan Macarthy(or McCarthy)(what is the
correct spelling?) who played for South Africa in a number of tests in 1948-49?

Was he if Irish extraction?
Thanks in advance. Arthur Tobin.

Is this the infamous chucker, Cuan McCarthy, who had a rather dubious action -
left arm fast medium possibly?
