Create an experience with Mark Waugh

Described by Sir Donald Bradman as:

“The most elegant and graceful cricketer of the modern era.”  

The twin brother of Steve, Better known as “Junior” was one of the world's most elegant and gifted stroke makers. His game was characterised by an ability to drive, cut, pull and loft the ball so effortlessly that it could make him look disdainful of the talents of bowlers. Waugh made his name as a middle-order player for New South Wales in the late 1980s, twice winning the Sheffield Shield Cricketer of the Year titles as he built and maintained a first-class average in excess of fifty.

Over 19 years playing with NSW and 14 years at the elite level of Australian cricket, Waugh’s career was studded with records. He played 22 World Cup Matches and is one of only seven Australians to have played more than 100 Tests.

He was Australia’s third highest run-scorer in test history (7,800) and one of just six Australians to score more than 7000 test runs. Only his twin brother, Steve Waugh (9,734) and Allan Border (11,174) achieved a higher Test run record. Furthermore, Mark is the leading run scorer for Australia in One Day cricket history with 8500 and he holds the record for the most runs in a One Day match by any Australian (173 runs).In the 1998 season, Mark Waugh scored an incredible 1000 Test runs.

Mark retired from First Class cricket in March 2004 and was awarded with an AM in Australia Day 2005 for his services to cricket and the community. Since retiring, Waugh has commentated with Fox Sports and been extensively engaged as a public speaker. Mark is married to Group One winning horse trainer, Kim Moore.
