Major Sir Theodore Ernest Warren Brinckman, 4th Baronet (21 May 1898 – 26 July 1954) was an English first-class cricketer.[1]

Brinckman was educated at Eton College and served as an officer in the 1st Life Guards during World War I.[2]

Brinckman played often for the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), and captained teams that toured the Channel Islands and South America.[3] In 1937–38 he took a team to South America called "Sir T. E. W. Brinckman's XI", that played three first-class matches against Argentina, drawing the three match series 1–1. These three matches were the extent of his first-class career.[4]

In 1937, Brinckman succeeded his father as baronet. Although he was married three times, he died without issue and the baronetcy passed to his younger brother Roderick.
