The 1890 season saw Somerset County Cricket Club playing thirteen fixtures against other county teams.
These matches were not considered first-class, after Somerset had five years earlier been removed from the County Championship due to playing too few matches against other first-class counties.
In the summer of 1890, Somerset scheduled thirteen fixtures, winning twelve of them and tying one against Middlesex.
As a result of this, they were readmitted to the County Championship for the following 1891 season.
