Thomas Howard Page (28 May 1872 - 7 December 1953) was an English cricketer. Page made his first-class debut for Hampshire in the 1900 County Championship against Essex. On debut Page took 4 wickets for 115 runs and scored an unbeaten 61. Page's final first-class appearance for Hampshire came in the same season against Surrey. Page died in Swanage, Dorset on 7 December 1953. Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings.
