Henry Holden DL, JP was an English cricketer and controversial cricket administrator who played a part in one of the first strikes by professional cricketers in 1881. As a player, Holdens batting style is unknown.
The son of Robert Holden and Mary Anne Drury Lowe, he was born at Locko Park, Derbyshire. He made a single firstclass appearance for Sussex against Nottinghamshire in 1853 at Trent Bridge. Nottinghamshire batted first, making 100 all out. In response, Sussex made 98 all out in their firstinnings, with Holden, who captained the county in what was his only game for them, being dismissed for a duck by John Bickley. Nottinghamshire were then dismissed for just 69 in their secondinnings to set Sussex 72 for victory. Sussex succeeded in their chase to win by three wickets, with Holden not required to bat.
