David "Lucky" Denton (4 July 1874 in Wakefield, Yorkshire – 16 February 1950 in Wakefield, Yorkshire) was an English cricketer, an attacking batsman who had a long career with Yorkshire and played eleven Tests for England. His nickname came from his habit of surviving the numerous chances that his attacking batting style naturally created for the opposition. He was a fine deep fielder, and was said to be an excellent judge of a high catch, but did little bowling: his only really significant contribution with the ball came in 1896, when he took 5-42 against South of England. He also had one first-class stumping to his name, against Cambridge University in 1905.
