1867 was the 81st season of cricket in England since the foundation of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). Yorkshire achieved a perfect season in first-class cricket,something not likely to be equaled on covered pitches due to the high frequency of drawn matches,and even beforehand much more difficult due to the increased scoring after 1870,produced by the usage of a heavy roller and the disappearance of the abundant shooters,which previously made batting very tough. The season is,however,best known for a schism between the northern and southern professionals that led to the North v South game,one of the major "representative" fixtures of the time,being suspended for several years because northern professionals refused to play in London for want of better conditions.

The Yorkshire captaincy affair of 1927 arose from a disagreement among members of Yorkshire County Cricket Club over the selection of a new captain to succeed the retired Major Arthur Lupton. The main issue was whether a professional cricketer should be appointed to the post. It was a tradition throughout English county cricket that captains should always be amateurs. At Yorkshire,a succession of amateur captains held office in the 1920s,on the grounds of their supposed leadership qualities,although they were not worth their place in the team as cricketers. None lasted long;after Lupton's departure some members felt it was time to appoint a more accomplished cricketer on a long-term basis.
