List of English cricketers (1841–1850)

This is a list of cricketers who played first-class cricket in England in matches between the 1841 and 1850 seasons. The sport of cricket had acquired most of its modern features by this time and roundarm bowling was firmly established.

More county cricket clubs began to become established during this period, following the establishment of Sussex County Cricket Club in 1839. Clubs were formally established in Nottinghamshire, Kent and Surrey, all of which remain first-class counties today. These teams competed against each other and other teams, although the County Championship was not formally established until 1890.

The players included are those known to have played in matches which were given retrospective first-class status between 1841 and 1850 inclusive.[upper-alpha 1]

Notes

1. Details of players are not always complete for this period. In some cases cricket historians have made assumptions regarding the identity of players where just a surname was recorded on original scorecards. Although scorecard information is more complete from this period, bowling analyses are rarely provided in the detail which modern scorecards would do so.
2. The range of seasons the player was involved in first-class cricket are shown.
3. Where no specific reference is provided references can be found in the player's article. Further information can be found in Scores and Biographies, Volume 3 and/or Volume 4.

1. Most of the matches played by touring sides such as the All England Eleven were "odds matches" played against sides fielding more than 11 players - often 18 or 22.
2. Three Hurst's made their only first-class appearances in the same match for Oxford University. Two of them, John and Richard, are known to have been born in Oxford and played club cricket in the area. It is not known if the three men were related and nothing is known at all about Edmund Hurst. There are no biographical details other than a name and he does not have an entry in Alumni Oxonienses.
3. The identity of the Henry Maltby who played for Nottinghamshire in 1843 is uncertain and it may be that two men with the same name played these matches.[129]
4. Biographical details for Noyes are incomplete.[152]
5. Only Porter's name is known and there are no other biographical details about his life.
6. Details about Shaw are extremely limited and he is not known to have played any other cricket. He is believed to have been born in Bradford.
7. No further biographical details are known about Thompson. He played for Sheffield in nine club matches between 1847 and 1858.
