Algernon Hay Lushington (29 September 1847 – 13 September 1930) was an English first-class cricketer.
The son of Frederick Astell Lushington and Lady Margaret Julia Hay, he was born at Lyndhurst in September 1847.[1] He was educated at Rugby School,[2] before going up to Trinity College, Cambridge.[3] A resident of Shanklin on the Isle of Wight where he was a member of Shanklin Cricket Club,[4] Lushington made three appearances in first-class cricket for Hampshire, the first of which came against Lancashire at Southampton in 1870. He would not play his next two first-class matches until 1877, when he appeared against the Marylebone Cricket Club at Lord's and Kent at Southampton.[5] In three first-class matches, Lushington took 3 wickets and scored 48 runs.[6][7] Lushington died at Shanklin on the Isle of Wight in September 1930. At the time of his death he was heir-presumptive to his cousin, Sir Andrew Lushington, the 5th Baronet of the Lushington baronets. His great-grandfather was James Hay, 15th Earl of Erroll.[8]
