The 1906 English cricket season saw the Championship decided on the very last day with Kent just pipping Yorkshire for the title. George Hirst achieved the unique feat of a "double Double", i.e. scoring over 2000 runs and taking more than 200 wickets in first-class matches: 2385 runs and 208 wickets.
