Sydney Santall (10 June 1873 – 19 March 1957) was an English first-class cricketer who played with Warwickshire. His son Reg was later a prolific run maker for them while his other son John had a brief career at Worcestershire.

Santall was a right-arm medium pace bowler and took 1207 wickets for Warwickshire during his 20-year career. His tally remained a county record until surpassed by Eric Hollies in 1949.[1]
