Rob Baker (cricketer)

Robert Michael Baker (born 24 July 1975) is an Australian former first-class cricketer who played for Western Australia. He played as a right-handed batsman and occasional slow left-arm orthodox bowler.

He showed great promise as a junior cricketer - being a skillful middle-order batsman and handy bowler. He was represented the Australian Under 19 side in 1993 and 1994 (as captain)[1] and attended the Commonwealth Bank Cricket Academy in 1994.[2]

Baker was the first Western Australian to take a hat-trick in a domestic one-day match.[3]
