David Brown (29 July 1900 — 30 January 1951) was a Scottish first-class cricketer and civil servant.
Brown was born in July 1900 at Dunfermline. A club cricketer for both Dunfermline Cricket Club and Fifeshire County, Brown made two appearances in first-class cricket for Scotland, both against Ireland. The first came in 1927 at Dublin, with the second following in 1930 at Aberdeen.[1] He scored 21 runs in his two matches, with a highest score of 13,[2] while with his right-arm medium pace bowling, he took a single wicket.[3] Outside of cricket, Brown was employed as a clerical officer by the Inland Revenue.[4] He died at Dunfermline in January 1951.
