1962 English cricket season

1962 was the 63rd season of County Championship cricket in England.

It was also the last season to feature the venerable Gentlemen v Players fixture: as a result of the distinction between amateurs ("Gentlemen") and professionals ("Players") being abolished following the end of the season, all first-class cricketers became nominally professional (or "Players").

Yorkshire won the County Championship, and England easily defeated an inexperienced Pakistan team.
