'''Terence Ian Barwell''' (born 29 April 1937) is a South African-born former [cricket](/source/cricket)er who played [first-class](/source/first-class_cricket) and [List A cricket](/source/List_A_cricket) for [Somerset](/source/Somerset_County_Cricket_Club) over a 10-season period from 1959 to 1968. He later represented [Wiltshire](/source/Wiltshire_County_Cricket_Club) in the [Minor Counties](/source/Minor_Counties) and played List A cricket for both Wiltshire and for Minor Counties representative sides. He became a schoolteacher.
==Life and career==
Born at [Bloemhof](/source/Bloemhof) in [Transvaal](/source/Transvaal_Province), Barwell was a right-handed middle-order batsman and an occasional wicketkeeper. Towards the end of his first-class career, when he played for Somerset's second eleven, he also bowled with some success.
Barwell played first for Somerset in 1959 in a match against the [Combined Services](/source/Combined_Services_cricket_team), keeping wicket and making the only stumping of his first-class career.[{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/23/23622.html | title = Somerset v Combined Services |date = 8 July 1959 |publisher = www.cricketarchive.com | accessdate = 12 November 2008}}] Unable to play [County Championship](/source/County_Championship) cricket until 1961 as he qualified for the county by residence,[{{Cite book | title = The Cricket Annual | editor = Roy Webber | edition = 1961 | publisher = Dickens Press | pages = 109 }}] his appearances were in any case restricted in some seasons by his career as a schoolmaster. But even in those seasons when he was more regularly available, he often found himself a fringe first-team player, never making more than 11 first-class appearances in any one season and managing a highest season aggregate of just 410 runs, which he achieved in 1967.[{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/3/3429/f_Batting_by_Season.html | title = First-class Batting and Fielding in each Season by Terry Barwell |publisher = www.cricketarchive.com |url-access=subscription | accessdate = 12 November 2008}}]
His best score was an unbeaten and quick 84 against [Glamorgan](/source/Glamorgan_County_Cricket_Club) at [Weston-super-Mare](/source/Weston-super-Mare) in 1965.[{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/27/27703.html | title = Somerset v Glamorgan |date = 7 August 1965 |publisher = www.cricketarchive.com |url-access=subscription | accessdate = 12 November 2008}}] He also made 74 not out against the [Pakistanis](/source/Pakistan_national_cricket_team) in 1967, though he was much upstaged by a second wicket partnership of 262 between [Roy Virgin](/source/Roy_Virgin) and [Mervyn Kitchen](/source/Mervyn_Kitchen), who made 162 and 189 respectively.[{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/28/28916.html | title = Somerset v Pakistanis |date = 8 July 1967 |publisher = www.cricketarchive.com |url-access=subscription | accessdate = 12 November 2008}}] He appeared in Somerset's losing [Gillette Cup](/source/Friends_Provident_Trophy) side of 1967, being run out for 24 in what [Wisden](/source/Wisden_Cricketers'_Almanack) termed "a fearful mix-up" with [Graham Burgess](/source/Graham_Burgess).[{{Cite book | title = [Wisden Cricketers' Almanack](/source/Wisden_Cricketers'_Almanack) | edition = 1968 | publisher = [Wisden](/source/Wisden_Cricketers'_Almanack) | chapter = The Gillette Cup, 1967| page = 669 }}] After starting the 1968 season as a regular member of the side, he dropped out after a few games and did not regain his place.
In second eleven cricket, Barwell was a reliable and prolific scorer, acting as batsman, occasional wicketkeeper, sometime captain and, more rarely, bowler. His final match for the combined [Gloucestershire](/source/Gloucestershire_County_Cricket_Club) and Somerset Second Eleven side in 1968 saw him make 45 out of 54 added while he was at the wicket in a first innings that totalled only 78, top-score in the second innings with 68 and then take four wickets for 14 runs as the combined side recovered to force a draw with [Kent's](/source/Kent_County_Cricket_Club) second eleven.[{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/29/29722.html | title = Gloucestershire and Somerset Second XIs v Kent Second XI |date = 26 August 1968 |publisher = www.cricketarchive.com |url-access=subscription | accessdate = 12 November 2008}}]
After leaving Somerset, he played for Wiltshire, appearing in first-round Gillette Cup matches against [Hampshire](/source/Hampshire_County_Cricket_Club) in both 1972 and 1973, and also turning out for the Minor Counties representative side in the [Benson and Hedges Cup](/source/Benson_and_Hedges_Cup). In 1973, he made a single final first-class cricket appearance for the Minor Counties side against the [West Indies](/source/West_Indian_cricket_team) at [Torquay](/source/Torquay).[{{cite web | url = https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/33/33633.html | title = Minor Counties v West Indies |date = 1 August 1973 |publisher = www.cricketarchive.com |url-access=subscription | accessdate = 12 November 2008}}]
As a schoolmaster, Barwell taught at [Dr Morgan's School, Bridgwater](/source/Haygrove_School), [Marlborough College](/source/Marlborough_College) and at [Blundell's School](/source/Blundell's_School).[{{Cite book | title = Somerset Cricket: A Postwar Who's Who | author = David Foot and Ivan Ponting | edition = 1993 | publisher = Redcliffe Press, Bristol | pages = 14 }}]
