List of Nottingham Cricket Club players

This is a complete list (subject to 14 redlinks) in alphabetical order of cricketers who played for Nottingham Cricket Club in important matches until it was superseded by Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club, founded in 1841. Some of the teams fielded by Nottingham were styled Nottinghamshire and its players in those games are included here. Nottingham is classified as an important team by substantial sources from 1771 to 1848.[1][2][3][4]

The details are the player's usual name followed by the years in which he was active as a Nottingham/Nottinghamshire player and then his name is given as it appears on match scorecards (i.e., usually his surname preceded by all initials). Note that many players represented other important teams besides Nottingham and that several played for the county club in or after 1841. Nottingham per se ceased to be an important team after 1848.[5]
