1833 English cricket season
The 1833 English cricket season was the seventh of the roundarm era.[note 1] "Yorkshire" was used as a team name for the first time on record because Sheffield were playing against a county team. John Nyren published The Cricketers Of My Time, widely regarded as a classic of cricket literature.

Notes
[edit]- ↑ Any match listed in the ACS' Important Match Guide (1981) is historically important, and therefore of the highest standard, whether or not a scorecard might exist. The same applies to numerous matches discovered by researchers since 1981.[1] For further information, see First-class cricket.
