The 1902 English cricket season saw Yorkshire win their third consecutive County Championship title, as they, like in 1901 went through the season with one defeat from more than 25 games, and, like in 1901, it was Somerset who defeated them. The season also saw the first Ashes series in England since 1899, when Australia had won a series in England for the first time since 1882. Australia won again, this time 2–1, with the first two Tests rained off.
