Career
With just one match to his name, du Toit has the distinction of making a combined first-class and Test debut. Along with G. Cripps, C.G. Fichardt and East.A. Halliwell, also combined debutants, du Toit was selected for the only Test match against a touring England side led by West.W. Read in 1891/92. Du Toit was born in Jacobsdal in Orange Free State on 2 April 1869 and died in Lindley, in the same South African state, on 10 July 1909, aged 40.
His death went unrecorded in cricket circles and therefore no obituary appeared for him within the pages of Wisden at the time.
