About Townsend

This is a list of English cricketers who were first recorded in historically important matches played between the 1701 and 1786 seasons. People known to have participated before 1701 are listed under Earliest known participants. 1786 was the season before Thomas Lord, backed by the White Conduit Club (WCC), opened his original ground in May 1787, with Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) being founded soon afterwards. Players who were first recorded in or after the 1787 season may be found in List of English cricketers (1787–1825).
