Brian Joseph Booth (born 3 December 1935) is a former English cricketer who played in 350 first-class matches and 64 List A games, nearly all of them for Lancashire and Leicestershire, in a career that stretched between 1956 and 1973. He was born in Billinge End, Blackburn, Lancashire.
Booth was a right-handed batsman sometimes used as an opener and a right-arm legbreak and googly bowler. He passed 1000 runs in eight seasons during his career, and scored more than 800 first-class runs in three other seasons. In his early career with Lancashire between 1956 and 1963, he bowled regularly, taking up to 30 wickets in a season, but after he joined Leicestershire in 1964 he was no more than an occasional bowler, and did not take more than nine wickets in any one season.
