Stephens Stephens

Stephens (first name and dates unknown) was an English cricketer who played for Dartford and Kent during the 1750s.

Career

Stephens is first mentioned when he played for All-England against his native Kent in the two matches at the Artillery Ground in May 1751.

He is not mentioned again until 1759 when he took part in the three Dartford v All-England matches which are the only first-class matches found in the 1759 sources.

As Stephens had established his reputation by 1751, he must have been active for some years previously. His career probably began in the 1740s and continued into the 1760s but it was a period when very few players were mentioned by name in contemporary reports.
