Career
Despite his small stature, he was an agile wicket-keeper. Brownlow captained the Tasmanian side on two occasions in the 1956-1957 season, but Tasmania lost both of those matches. Following his career as a player, Brownlow became a selector for the Tasmanian state side, and went on to serve as an administrator for the Tasmanian Cricket Association for many years, eventually serving as chairman of the Telecommunications Carriers Association. Bertie Brownlow died in his home in Hobart, Tasmania on 22 October 2004, aged 84 years and 155 days.
