South African cricket team in England 1901
Yorkshire defended their County Championship title in the 1901 English cricket season, though, unlike in 1900, they lost one game during the season, to 12th-placed Somerset.
Middlesex finished second, winning six of their eight finished games, but had the highest percentage of draws of anyone save Essex. Once again, Ranjitsinhji contributed more than 2,000 runs to Sussex' cause, and with 2,000 runs from C. B. Fry as well, the team finished fourth in the table - beaten, however, by Lancashire, whose England Test batsman Johnny Tyldesley contributed 2,605 runs.
