This is a list of all English national cricket captains, comprising all of the men, boys and women who have captained an English national cricket team at official international level. England played in the first Test match in 1877 and have played more Test matches, and had more captains, than any other team. In the 19th century, the captains for overseas tours were chosen by the promoters, with James Lillywhite, Alfred Shaw and Arthur Shrewsbury being the main professional promoters. However, some amateur tours went abroad under Lord Harris and Lord Hawke. Home captains were selected by the home ground authority, who often went for their local favourites. In cricket, the captain is the most important member of the team. ...
The English cricket team is a national cricket team representing England and Wales. ...

Martin Bladen Hawke, 7th Baron Hawke (16 August 1860-10 October 1938) was an English cricketer who, Wisden wrote, strode the cricketing world like a colossus for half a century, as a player and administrator, and one who played a major part in the modernisation of the game. He captained...
For around sixty years from 1902/3, the Marylebone Cricket Club took over the organisation of all overseas tours, with the games played being technically by the "MCC" rather than "England". They brought with them the tradition of having amateur, rather than professional, captains, and after Shrewsbury there wasn't another professional captain until Len Hutton around sixty years later. The amateur/professional distinction was abolished in the mid-1960s, and a new breed of captain in Brian Close and then Ray Illingworth was born. Lords 2005 The Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), founded in 1787, is a private members club and was the original governing body of cricket in England and across the world. ...

Raymond (Ray) Illingworth (born 8 June 1932) is a former English cricketer, cricket commentator and cricket administrator. ...
From the mid-1980s until the late 1990s, English cricket was in decline, with the England team suffering many heavy defeats. The desperation was most clear on the 1988 West Indies tour of England, when the captaincy started with Mike Gatting, who was sacked after the first Test as a result of a dalliance with a barmaid. He was initially replaced by John Emburey, who was so poor as a captain that he was replaced after two Tests. Chris Cowdrey came into the team as captain for the fourth Test and was then injured. Finally, Graham Gooch became England's fourth captain of the summer. Unsurprisingly, England lost the five-Test series 4-0. From the late 1990s under Nasser Hussain's captaincy, England started to enjoy a revival, which has continued under current captain Michael Vaughan. England were the only team undefeated in 2004, and are, as at June 2005, ranked as the second-best Test nation in the world. Learie Constantine, was one of the first great West Indian players. ...

Men's Test match captains This is a list of cricketers who have captained the English cricket team for at least one Test match. It has been updated to the end of the Test series against India in March 2006. Where a player has a dagger (†) next to a Test match series in which he captained at least one Test, that denotes that player deputised for the appointed captain or were appointed by the home authority for a minor proportion in a series. The dagger classification follows that adopted by Wisden Cricketers' Almanack. In cricket, the captain is the most important member of the team. ...

- 1 W. G. Grace, playing his last Test was 50 years and 320 days old when the match ended. Only Wilfred Rhodes, who was making his debut in this Test, played Test cricket at a greater age.
- 2 Monty Bowden, aged 23 years 144 days, became England's youngest captain on 25 March 1889, three years before dying in Umtali Hospital - a glorified mud hut where his body had to be protected from marauding lions prior to being interred in a coffin made from whiskey cases.
- 3 Shrimp Leveson-Gower's surname was pronounced Loosen Gore.
- 4George Mann was the son of Frank Mann, making them the first father and son to both captain England.
- 5 Arthur Gilligan and Harold Gilligan were brothers: the first brothers to captain England.
- 6England had two overlapping Test series in the winter of 1929/30. Their first Test against New Zealand started on 10 January 1930. Their first Test against the West Indies started on 11 January 1930, making the first time England had simultaneously played two Test matches at once.
- 7Harold Gilligan's Cricinfo profile [1] is wrong. He captained England in all four Tests that he played in - the whole England v. New Zealand series of 1929/30
- 8 Chris Cowdrey is the son of Colin Cowdrey, making them the second father and son to both captain England after George and Frank Mann.
- 9In 1970, South Africa were due to tour England. However, the Basil D'Oliveira affair, and South Africa's subsequent withdrawal from international cricket left England without a touring side that summer. A Rest of the World XI was hastily arranged to play a 5 match series, which originally was regarded as a Test series. Later the matches were stripped of Test status. The Rest of the World XI won the series 4-1, with Ray Illingworth captaining England in each match.
- 10The third Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Australia in 1970/1 was abandoned without a ball being bowled and is excluded from these statistics. This is in line with the approach adopted by Wisden and most statisticians, although the match has been recognised as an official Test match by the Australian Board of Control. In its place, once the rain cleared, the two teams played a limited overs game, which was retrospectively recognised as the first one-day international.
