List of Gentlemen cricketers (1841–1962)

This is a complete list of first-class cricketers who made their debuts for the Gentlemen in the annual Gentlemen v Players fixture from 1841 to 1962. Cricketers who represented other teams styled "Gentlemen" are not included. The cricketers are listed chronologically by year of debut but some of the names are still redlinks. The dates in parentheses are the span of years in which the cricketer made appearances for the Gentlemen teams.^[1]

For Gentlemen team members who debuted prior to 1841, see List of Gentlemen cricketers (1806–40). For members of the Players cricket team, see List of Players cricketers (1806–1962).
