Derbyshire County Cricket Club in 1936 was the cricket season when the English club Derbyshire won the County Championship for the first and only time. They had been playing for sixty five years and it was their thirty-eighth season in the County Championship. ==1936 season== Success in the County Championship saw the culmination of five years effort by A. W. Richardson since he became captain in 1931. Derbyshire had actually come second in the championship in 1935 with a better set of results. Middlesex and Yorkshire made strong challenges in the closing weeks of the 1936 season which kept tensions high in the Derbyshire camp. When he heard that the Championship had been settled the Duke of Devonshire, the Derbyshire President, left a shooting party at Bolton Abbey in a hurry to get to Derby and join the public reception given to the players on their return.〔(W.T. Taylor ''History of Derbyshire cricket Wisden'' 1953 )〕 Derbyshire played 28 games in the County Championship, and one match against Oxford University and one match against the touring Indians. Stan Worthington and Leslie Townsend tied as top scorers in the County Championships, but Worthington's 174 against Oxford University gave him the edge in first class batting positions. Bill Copson's 140 wickets made him top bowler for the county. Worthington also played for England in Test matches against the Indians. George Langdale made his debut for Derbyshire and went on to play one first team game in 1937. Samuel Hunt also made his debut, but only played the 1936 season 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Derbyshire County Cricket Club in 1936」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
