List of Marylebone Cricket Club players (1946–1977)


Cricketers who debuted for Marylebone Cricket Club in first-class matches during the post-war period from 1946 until the end of the 1977 season, when it was decided that MCC would no longer organise the England cricket team, are as follows. Many of the players represented MCC after 1977 but they are only listed here, as it was in this period that they made their MCC debuts.
MCC have rarely taken part in List A matches. The club played all its home matches at its Lord's venue in north London. The majority of MCC players in this period were contracted to county clubs and appeared for MCC by invitation. Some players were from other countries. For much of the 20th century until 1976–1977, MCC organised international tours in which the England cricket team played Test matches. The players selected for these tours were contracted to MCC for the duration and appearances by them in non-Tests on the tour were for MCC, therefore all such players are included in this list. MCC teams have always operated at all levels of the sport and players who represented the club in minor cricket only are out of scope here.
The details are the player's usual name followed by the span of years in which he was active as an MCC player in important matches and then his name is given as it appears on match scorecards, followed by the club or team with which he was mostly associated. Players who have taken part in Test cricket have their names highlighted in bold text and the names of players who represented MCC in a List A match are preceded by the symbol.
