List of Marylebone Cricket Club players (1919–1939)

Last updated

Cricketers who debuted for Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) in first-class matches during the inter-war period from 1919 until September 1939, after which first-class cricket was suspended until the 1945 season, are as follows. [1] [2] Many of the players represented MCC after the Second World War but they are only listed here, as it was in this period that they made their MCC debuts.

The club always played its home matches at its Lord's venue in north London. The majority of MCC players in this period were contracted to county clubs or one of the two main university teams and appeared for MCC by invitation. Some players were from other countries. For much of the 20th century, MCC organised international tours in which the England cricket team played Test matches. The players selected for these tours were contracted to MCC for the duration and appearances by them in non-Tests on the tour were for MCC, therefore all such players are included in this list. MCC teams have always operated at all levels of the sport and players who represented the club in minor cricket only are out of scope here.

The details are the player's usual name followed by the span of years in which he was active as an MCC player in first-class matches (the span may include years in which he played in minor matches only for MCC and/or years in which he did not represent MCC in any matches) and then his name is given as it appeared on match scorecards (e.g., surname preceded by all initials), followed by the club or team with which he was mostly associated (this may be MCC itself). Players who took part in Test cricket have their names highlighted in bold text.
