Basil George von Brandis Melle was a South African cricketer and paediatrician. He played as a right-handed batsman and bowled right-arm medium pace and later leg breaks. Melle began his first-class career as a batsman,and it was not until he gained a Rhodes Scholarship to the University of Oxford to study medicine that Melle would achieve noterity as a bowler during the 1913 season. Employing fast leg theory bowling,he took 15 wickets at an average of 15.90 during his freshman year. David Frith,the cricket historian,saw Melle as playing a role in the origins of bodyline bowling.
