Brendan Doggett (born 3 May 1994) is an Australian cricketer. A tall right-arm fast-medium bowler, he made his this List A debut for Cricket Australia XI on 1 October 2016.[1][2] He made his first-class debut for Queensland in the 2017–18 Sheffield Shield season on 26 October 2017.[3] On 31 October 2017, he signed his first Big Bash League contract for the Brisbane Heat.[4] He made his Twenty20 debut for Brisbane Heat in the 2017–18 Big Bash League season on 20 December 2017.[5]

## Domestic career[edit]

### 2016–17 season[edit]

At the beginning of the season, Doggett earned a rookie contract with the Queensland Bulls, becoming just the second Indigenous Australian to have a contract with the team,[2] but he did not play for them throughout the season, instead making his List A for Cricket Australia XI in the 2016–17 Matador BBQs One-Day Cup. He played in the first match against Queensland, and late in the innings he bowled fellow Queenslander Ben Cutting to take his first List A wicket.[6] He took six wickets across four matches in the tournament, the second-most of any player for Cricket Australia XI.[7]

### 2017–18 season[edit]

No longer in the Cricket Australia XI squad, Doggett played his first matches for Queensland in the 2017–18 JLT One-Day Cup and took five wickets for the team while conceding 6.19 runs per over in four matches.[8] He then made his first-class debut in the opening round of the 2017–18 Sheffield Shield season. In his first innings of first-class bowling he had impressive figures of 4/33 while Victoria were bowled out for 148.[9] In February 2018, in round eight of the 2017–18 Sheffield Shield season, he took his maiden five-wicket haul in first-class cricket.[10]

### 2021–22 season[edit]

In 2021 Doggett moved to Adelaide and began playing for South Australia.[11]

## International career[edit]

In September 2018, he was named in Australia's Test squad for their series against Pakistan, but he did not play.[12][13]
