Simon John Emmerson Brown (born June 29, 1969, Cleadon, County Durham) is a former English cricketer who played in one Test in 1996. He was a right-handed batsman and a left-arm fast-medium bowler.
Simon "Smudge" Brown was one of the myriad of left-arm bowlers tried by England during the 1990s. He played in only a single Test match, against Pakistan in 1996, and despite taking two wickets, never played again.
He remained however a highly regarded bowler on the county circuit.
