Category:English cricket seasons from 1864 to 1889

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This category has been created to hold articles about cricket matters in the English seasons from 1864 to 1889, a period that begins with the legalisation of overarm bowling and ends with the decision, in December 1889, to reconstitute the County Championship on a formal basis.

The period is also notable for the heyday of WG Grace and for the beginning of Test cricket between England and Australia.

Any articles about individual cricketers should be placed in a suitable sub-category such as category:All-England Eleven cricketers or category:English cricketers of 1864 to 1889.

For events in Australia and other countries during this period, appropriate categories for that country should be used.
