**Tom George Buckland** (20 November 1860 – 18 July 1915) was an English [cricketer](/source/Cricket). Buckland was a right-handed [batsman](/source/Batsman_(cricket)) who bowled right-arm [fast-medium](/source/Fast_bowling). He was born at [Sutton-in-Ashfield](/source/Sutton-in-Ashfield), [Nottinghamshire](/source/Nottinghamshire). He was registered at birth as **Tom George Beastall**.

Buckland made two [first-class](/source/First-class_cricket) appearances for [Nottinghamshire](/source/Nottinghamshire_County_Cricket_Club) in 1888, against [Sussex](/source/Sussex_County_Cricket_Club) and [Surrey](/source/Surrey_County_Cricket_Club), with both matches played at [Trent Bridge](/source/Trent_Bridge).[1] In his first match, Sussex won the toss and elected to bat, making 97 all out in their first-innings, with Buckland taking the wickets of [Walter Andrews](/source/Walter_Andrews_(cricketer)) and [Walter Humphreys](/source/Walter_Humphreys,_Sr.) to finish with figures of 2/13 from thirteen [overs](/source/Over_(cricket)). Nottinghamshire responded in their first-innings by making 240 all out, with Buckland ending the innings [not out](/source/Not_out) on 9. Sussex were then dismissed for just 69 in their second-innings, with Buckland once again taking two wickets, those of [Willie Quaife](/source/Willie_Quaife) and Andrews, taking figures of 2/20 from fourteen overs. Nottinghamshire won by an innings and 74 runs.[2] In his second match, Nottinghamshire won the toss and elected to bat first, making 187 all out, with Buckland scoring 12 runs before he was dismissed by [Thomas Bowley](/source/Thomas_Bowley). Surrey responded to that by making 237 all out in their first-innings, during which he bowled seventeen wicketless overs, conceding 25 runs. In their second-innings, Nottinghamshire made 131 all out, with Buckland [run out](/source/Run_out) for 2, to set Surrey 82 for victory. Surrey reached that target in their second-innings with just one wicket lost, with Buckland bowling eight wicketless overs in it.[3]

He died at the town of his birth on 18 July 1915.
