Andrew John Corran is a former first-class English cricketer and schoolmaster.
After starting his career at Gresham's School, Holt, at Trinity College, Oxford, and in Minor Counties cricket for Norfolk, Corran moved to Nottinghamshire, for whom he played between 1961 and 1965. He was the club's captain in the 1962 season, when he made 620 runs and took 64 wickets in the County Championship, but Nottinghamshire finished 15th. In the 1965 County Championship he took 109 wickets at an average of 20.30.
In the 1960 Oxford and Cambridge match, Corran took 12 wickets for 116 runs. Earlier in the season he had taken 7 for 45, bowling unchanged through the innings, to dismiss Lancashire for 103. Also in 1960, he played for the Gentlemen in the Gentlemen v Players match at Lord's.
A schoolmaster, he took a job in Australia in late 1965 and ended his first-class cricket career. From 1968 until retirement he taught mathematics and cricket at Cranleigh School.
He and his wife Gay, an artist, have five children.
