Contents

1947 season

Derbyshire played 26 matches in the County Championship and two against touring sides from Ireland and South Africa. They won eleven matches in the Championship and won the game against Ireland.

Edward Gothard was brought into the side as captain in 1947 and the club saw a marked improvement in rating. Charlie Elliott was top scorer and Cliff Gladwin and George Pope equalled on wickets taken in the County Championship at 102, but Gladwin took most overall with 117. Derbyshire struggled with the wicket-keeping. Denis Smith was wicket-keeper for much of the season, but Harry Elliott was brought back for a four match spell before George Dawkes joined for the last few matches of the season. Charlie Elliott and Alderman also took spells behing the stumps.

Apart from Gothard, debuting as captain three important players to join the club were HL Jackson, George Dawkes and David Skinner. Jackson had a long career and was one of the club's leading bowlers. Dawkes came in as wicket-keeper for the last four matches of the season and remained as Derbyshire's wicket-keeper for many seasons. Skinner had a shorter career but was captain after Gothard. DC Brooke-Taylor also joined the side as stand-in captain in his first game and played for three seasons. Richard Watson played just 6 matches for Derbyshire which were all in the 1947 season.
