An
all-rounder, Seccull was a member of the first
South African team to tour England in 1894. No Tests or
first-class matches were played on the tour. He scored 355 runs with a top score of 63 against
Glamorgan, when he made the highest score in the match, but took only four wickets on the tour. Seccull's provincial cricket in South Africa was mainly for
Transvaal, though he also appeared for
Kimberley and
Western Province. He played in consecutive
Currie Cup-winning finals for different teams. In the first, in 1893–94, he took his best first-class bowling figures of 6 for 48 in the second innings to help Western Province to an innings victory in the final against
Natal. A year later he made his highest first-class score of 64, the highest score in the match, to help Transvaal to victory over Western Province. ==References==
