Derbyshire County Cricket Club in 1912 was the cricket season when the English club Derbyshire had been playing for forty one years. It was their eighteenth season in the County Championship and they won two matches to finish tenth in the Championship table.
1912 season
Derbyshire played twenty matches, of which eighteen were in the County Championship and the others against touring South Africans and Australians. John Chapman was in his third year as captain. In one of the wettest summers on record, no players scored centuries. Samuel Cadman scored most runs, and had one of the team's two innings in the nineties. Arthur Morton took most wickets.
Significant players who made their debut in the season were Richard Baggallay who went on to captain the side and Geoffrey Jackson whose death in World War I deprived the club of a useful player. New players who had shorter careers were George Burnham and Albert Blount who each played five game in the 1912 season. That was the extent of Burnham's career, but Blount reappeared in one more match fourteen years later.
