Was a Bermudian and Scottish cricketer. He was a left-handed batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler. Hunt started his career playing in his native Bermuda, and scored his first century in an organised game at the age of 10. Considered one of the finest cricketers Bermuda has ever produced, he was selected to take part in trials for the West Indian cricket team in 1933. He played one first-class match for GC Grant's XI as part of the trials, but was not selected when doubts were raised about his eligibility. The following year, he moved to Scotland to play as a professional with Aberdeenshire. He later played twice for Scotland in 1938 against Australia and Yorkshire. The game against Yorkshire was his second and final first-class appearance. He moved back to Bermuda, and became heavily involved with administration of cricket on the island. As Bermuda's delegate to the International Cricket Council, it was Hunt who first proposed the ICC Trophy competition, which was first played in 1979 and still serves as a qualifier for the Cricket World Cup.
