George Louis Sheridan Scrimshaw (born 10 February 1998) is an English cricketer.[1] A product of the Worcestershire academy system, he signed his first professional contract with the county in 2016 and was also called up to the England under-19 squad that year, but withdrew due to injury. He signed a long-term contract extension with Worcestershire ahead of the 2017 season[2] and made his county debut in the 2017 NatWest t20 Blast on 5 August 2017.[3] He was released by Worcestershire at the end of the 2020 season.[4]

After a trial period, he signed for Derbyshire in March 2021.[5] He made his first-class debut on 22 April 2021, for Derbyshire against Durham in the 2021 County Championship.[6] He made his List A debut on 4 August 2021, for Derbyshire in the 2021 Royal London One-Day Cup.[7] In August 2023 it was announced that he had signed a three-year contract with Northamptonshire beginning from the 2024 season.[8]

Scrimshaw made his England international debut on 23 September 2023, taking 3 wickets for 66 runs in a one day international against Ireland.[9]
