List of English cricketers (1851–1860)

This is a list of cricketers who played first-class cricket in England in matches between the 1851 and 1860 seasons. The sport of cricket had acquired most of its modern features by this time and roundarm bowling was firmly established, although overarm bowling was not accepted until 1863.

The players included are those known to have played in matches which were given retrospective first-class status between 1851 and 1860 inclusive.
