Career
He also played for and captained Lincolnshire in the Minor Counties Championship. Born at Wellingore, Lincolnshire, Nevile made his first-class debut in June 1912, playing for Free Foresters against Cambridge University, scoring 4 in his only innings and bowling a single over without reward. He attended Cambridge himself, not getting into the First XI, but gaining a blue for golf.
The following season he appeared five times for Worcestershire, but only twice made an impression.
Against Kent in mid-July he took 3-29 in the first innings (his maiden wicket being that of opener Punter Humphreys). And against Surrey a fortnight later, in what proved to be his final game, he claimed a career-best 4-53.
Nevile joined the Army in World War I, and served in the Lincolnshire Regiment. He was killed near Ypres, Belgium at the age of just 27.
