Terry Gunn (27 September 1935 – 5 April 2021) was an English cricketer. Gunn was a right-handed batsman who fielded as a wicket-keeper. He was born at Barnsley, Yorkshire.[1]

Gunn made his

stumpings.[3] He gained his Sussex cap in 1965 and left Sussex following the 1968 season. Gunn's highest score of 19* not out was in a last wicket partnership with England bowler John Snow
who instead of batting defensively in the last over before lunch Snow chipped one up in air and was caught. Although Gunn's batting was limited he once said “I was never a chance up the order” as he felt he was a bit better than a number 11.

Gunn died on 5 April 2021, at the age of 85.[4]
