Blair Andrew Pocock (born 18 June 1971) in Papakura. He played 15 Tests for New Zealand.
Pocock was one of the many openers used in the poorly performing New Zealand cricket team of the mid 90's, but made little impact in Test cricket, averaging under 23.
Pocock showed promise in his domestic career but was sadly unable to show he was world class against most of the cricketing powers.
The major teams that he was in were New Zealand, Auckland and Northern Districts. He is the nephew of Michael Graeme Pocock, who also played first-class cricket
