In Yorkshire’s 515 matches during the 20 seasons 95 players represented the county. Of these 38 played in only one, two, three, or four matches each, 20 in 5 or more but under 50 matches, and the following 28 in 50 or more :— Denton, Haigh, and Hirst in 400 or over ; Lord Hawke, Hunter, Rhodes, and Tunnicliffe in 300, but under 400 ; Brown (J.
