Renowned for his odd bowling style — taking only a couple of steps before delivering the ball, Hurwood played for Queensland before being called up to the Australian squad for summer of 1930–31.
Hurwood was unlucky, after gaining very respectable figures from his 2 Tests, to be dropped in favour of bowlers returning to the squad from injury.
Married Norma and father of 3 – Janet, Ross and Philip
