Thomas Warsop (christened 29 September 1778 – 28 February 1845) was an English cricketer who played a single match of first-class cricket for a combined Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire side in 1803.[1]

Warsop was born at Nottingham. He was considered a good all-rounder who batted right-handed and bowled slow right-arm underarm deliveries.[2] He captained Nottingham Cricket Club, which he first played for in 1791 aged 12. Three of his brothers, Richard, William and Samuel, also played for the club.[2]

He retired after the 1823 season and died at his home in Pepper Street, Nottingham, in 1845 aged 65.[2]
