Harold Baker (cricketer)

Harold Frank Baker (4 May 1884 – 5 May 1954) was an English cricketer who played two first-class games for Worcestershire in 1911. He made his first-class debut in the same match as the slightly more successful James Turner.

Neither of Baker's two appearances were a success. He never reached double figures with the bat, and bowled a total of 23 overs without taking a wicket. He did manage one catch, to dismiss Gloucestershire player Arthur Nott.

Baker was born in Walsall, then in Staffordshire. He died one day after his 70th birthday in West Hagley, Worcestershire.
