James Boiling was an Indian-born English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm off-break bowler. He was born in New Delhi and educated at Rutlish School in Merton, south London. Boiling's first-class career began in 1988, when he was signed by Surrey after appearing for them in the Second XI the previous year. This came straight off the back of appearing in all eight of the England Young Cricketers' appearances in the Youth World Cup of 1988. Boiling became a part of the Surrey first team during the 1991 season, which saw an improvement on the team's performance the previous year. However, as a tailender for the team, Boiling had one of the weakest averages of the season. In the same year, he was on the losing side in the NatWest Trophy final, which was played against Hampshire. After a disappointing 1992 season, Boiling toured with the England A team to Australia in the winter tour, and played two games against domestic Australian teams. He returned to the Surrey team in 1994, where he helped to partner onetime Test player Joey Benjamin in the tailend. However, this was to prove his final year in the side, as he signed to Durham in time for 1995.
