The 1736 English cricket season was the 40th cricket season since the earliest recorded eleven-aside match was played. Details have survived of 17 top-class matches and two notable single wicket matches.

One of the single wicket matches resulted in a tie, the earliest known instance of this result in cricket history.

Recorded matches

Records have survived of 17 matches:[1][2]

DateTeamsVenueResultSource

5 July Croydon v Chertsey Richmond Green drawn [3][4]
Scores are known: Chertsey 88 & 55; Croydon 58 & 25/9. Croydon with one wicket remaining needed 61 to win when time expired. The report in Read's Weekly Journal dated 3 July, says this was "a new match to decide which are best", the two teams having met twice before (see above).
14 July London v Surrey Artillery Ground London won by 30 runs [3]
The report in the General Evening Post next day states that "London beat Surrey by 30 notches and had three men to go in".
19 July Chertsey v London Laleham Burway London won [5]
Very large bets were laid on the match. The Chertsey team was the same eleven who played against Croydon at Richmond Green on 5 July.
29 July London v Chertsey Artillery Ground Chertsey won by 8 wickets [6]
Scores are known: London 48 & 60; Chertsey 97 & 12/2.
11 August Surrey v London Barnes Common Surrey won by 19 runs [7]
The report in the Whitehall Evening Post on 14 August refers to Surrey as "Barnes, Fulham and Richmond". It goes on to say that the return on Tuesday, 17 August would be played "in the fields behind Powis House". It extends the hope that "the company will keep a good ring which was very much wanted at Barnes Common".
16 August Middlesex v Surrey Chelsea Common Middlesex won by 9 runs [8]
Played for 50 guineas a side.
17 August London v Surrey Lamb's Conduit Field London won by 86 runs [8]
The Daily Gazetteer on 18 August reported that London beat Surrey by "upwards of 90 notches". The following day the Whitehall Evening Post gives scores and repeats the report of the previous match by first referring to Surrey as "Barnes, Fulham and Richmond" as well as "the Surrey men". London scored 55 and 75; Surrey scored 31 and 13. Two London batsmen in the second innings had a partnership of 51, which was a considerable achievement at the time.
21 August Surrey v Middlesex Moulsey Hurst Surrey won by 5 runs [9][8]
 
2 September London v Mitcham Kennington Common result unknown [8]
 
11 September Surrey v Middlesex Moulsey Hurst Surrey won by 2 runs [8]
Reported on 18 September by the Whitehall Evening Post. Played for 50 guineas a side.
20 September Surrey v Kent Kennington Common Surrey won by 2 wickets [10][20]
Scores are known: Kent 41 & 53; Surrey 71 & 24/8. During this match, an incident occurred in the crowd. Three soldiers apprehended a deserter but the crowd turned on them, rescued the deserter and "after a severe discipline let them go about their business."
22 September Middlesex v Surrey Lamb's Conduit Field unknown [11]
Announced the previous day in the London Evening Post.
4 October Kent v Surrey Coxheath Common drawn (rain) [12][13]
First innings scores were level when the rain began, though Kent still had five wickets in hand.

Single wicket matches

On 24 June two London players, Wakeland and George Oldner played against two "famous" Richmond players who were "esteemed the best two in England" whose names are not known. One of the Richmond players suffered facial injuries in the game when the ball came off his bat and hit his nose. The report rails against "human brutes" who insisted he should play on despite his injuries.[14]

A "threes" match between London and Surrey on 1 September ended in cricket's earliest known tie. Different versions of the scores have been reported, but each team scored 23 runs from their two innings. In one version, London scored 4 and 19 against Surrey's 18 and 5; in the other, London scored 5 and 18 against Surrey's 17 and 6.[8][15][16]
