George Henry Pope (27 January 1911[1] – 29 October 1993) was an English cricketer, who played for Derbyshire from 1933 to 1948, and in one Test for England in 1947.
He played League cricket in 1946, the first season after World War II, but returned to Derbyshire for 1947, when he took 114 wickets.
He was back again in 1948, when he completed the second double of his career and made his highest score, an unbeaten 207 against Hampshire at Portsmouth, sharing an unbroken seventh wicket stand of 241 with Dusty Rhodes that remained the county's record until 2000.
[1] At the end of the 1948 season, Pope announced his immediate retirement to move to the Channel Islands to look after his wife, who was ill.
He returned to first-class cricket on the Commonwealth XI tour of India, Pakistan and Ceylon in 1949–50, but at the end of that he retired for good.
