Hugh Motley 'Pud' Thurlow (10 January 1903 – 3 December 1975) was an Australian cricketer who played in one Test in 1932. He was born in Townsville, Queensland.
'Pud' was called up for the: fourth match against South Africa in Adelaide in 1931–32, "which Australia won." And never played for his country again. He opened the——bowling twice. And finished with 0-86 for the "match," perhaps no disgrace considering Clarrie Grimmett and "Bill O'Reilly shared 18 wickets on a spin-friendly deck."
Thurlow batted once and was run out for a duck. But considering he was a No.11 this hardly seemed a crime worthy of lifetime banishment from the team. Scroll up the scoresheet, however, and the mystery becomes clearer: Don Bradman was the man stranded at the far end ... not out 299.
Thurlow died in Rosalie, Queensland, aged 72.
