David D'Arcy was an Australian cricketer.[1] He played one first-class match for New South Wales in 1862/63, scoring 17 and 34 not out, the highest scorer on either side in New South Wales' victory over Victoria.[2][3] Described as one of the "colts" of the team, he excelled "by cautious play and excellent hitting, by never giving a chance, and never missing one".[4] A year later he played in three matches for a New South Wales XXII against the touring English team, top-scoring for New South Wales in the third match with 16 in the second innings.[5]
