List of English cricketers (1871–1880)

This is a list of cricketers who played first-class cricket in domestic matches in England between the 1871 and 1880 English cricket seasons. The sport of cricket had acquired most of its modern features by this time and organised play between county sides was becoming common, although the County Championship was not established until 1890.

The players included are those who played in matches which have been awarded first-class status for English domestic sides between 1871 and 1880, inclusive. It excludes players who only played for touring sides from other countries in first-class matches in England or Wales.[a]
