- Ronald Andrewes Halcombe (19 March 1906 – 1 August 1993) was a first-class cricketer who represented South Australia and Western Australia in a career spanning from 1926/27 to 1939/40. A right-arm fast bowler, Halcombe moved from South Australia to Western Australia after two seasons due to a lack of opportunity. With more regular selection on the field, Halcombe was considered a leading contender to become his state's first ever representative for Australia in Test cricket due to his express pace, but his career was derailed after he was no-balled for throwing in two consecutive matches in early 1930. Some solid performances in the early 1930s led to rumours that he would be brought into the Australian team in order to retaliate against England's Bodyline tactics during the 1932–33 Ashes series. However, this never eventuated and thereafter Halcombe increasingly found state selection hard to come by. In retirement he became a well known sports commentator for the Australian Broadcasting Commission, providing description of cricket and Australian rules football matches until his retirement from the media in 1968.
