Used as an opening or middle order batsman, Bowring, who was born at Portland, Dorset, made little impact, failing to reach double figures until his last first-class innings, when he made 15 against Hampshire at Portsmouth.[1] In the previous match, against Kent at Taunton he took three wickets for 24 runs in 31 balls, his only first-class wickets.[2]
Bowring died at Preston, near Yeovil.
