Derek Thomas Tulk (21 April 1934 – 27 January 2023) was an English first-class cricketer.
Tulk was born at Southampton in April 1934. He was educated at Taunton's School, where he played for the school cricket team in the Hampshire Schools’ Altham Trophy.[1] He made two appearances in first-class cricket for Hampshire, playing against Gloucestershire in the 1956 County Championship, and Cambridge University in 1957.[2] Playing as a right-arm medium pace bowler, he bowled a total of 16 overs across both matches, but failed to take a wicket.[3] After his brief foray into first-class cricket, Tulk played club cricket for the Old Tauntonians Cricket Club, playing a prominent role in the club's success in the Southern Cricket League during the 1970s.[1][4] Outside of cricket, he forged a successful career in the insurance industry.[1] Tulk died in Rownhams, Hampshire on 27 January 2023, at the age of 88. He had been unwell for some time.[5] His son, Ian, worked for Hampshire County Cricket Club for over 20 years.[4]
