Clifford Tamplin (14 May 1920 – 1 February 2006), also known as Cyril Tamplin, was a Welsh cricketer. Tamplin was a right-handed batsman who played primarily as a wicket-keeper.
Tamplin was born in Cardiff, Glamorgan in May 1920. He made his first-class debut while on war service[1] in India for Bengal against Bihar in the 1942/43 Ranji Trophy at Eden Gardens, Calcutta.[2]
Tamplin later returned to the United Kingdom and made his first-class debut for Glamorgan against the touring South Africans in 1947. Tamplin played 2 further first-class matches for the county in 1947, against Kent and Derbyshire.[3] In his 4 first-class matches, he scored 56 runs at a batting average of 18.66 and a high score of 40*. Behind the stumps he took 8 catches and made 2 stumpings.[4] His first-class career may have lasted longer, had it not been for the presence of Haydn Davies in the Glamorgan side. Tamplin died in Leominster, Herefordshire on 1 February 2006, at the age of 85.
