1900 was the 11th season of County Championship cricket in England.
[1] Defending champions Surrey finished seventh.
Lancashire were second, and the matches between the two top teams both ended in draws; Yorkshire made 230 in the first innings of the first game, compared to Lancashire's 96, but still could not force a victory, and in the second, with a crowd of over 44,000 present over three days at Old Trafford, Yorkshire took a lead of seven runs on first innings, but as only two and a half hours of play had been possible on the second day, the game was drawn.
One point was awarded for a win, none for a draw, and minus one for a loss.
Positions were decided on percentage of points over completed games.
