Brett Geeves (born June 13, 1982, Claremont, Tasmania) is an Australian cricket player, who plays for the Tasmanian Tigers. He plays club cricket for Glenorchy Cricket Club. He also plays his club cricket for the Indian Premier League team of Delhi DareDevils.
Geeves played in the Australia Under-19s 2000/01 and was regarded as a good prospect. After an excellent season in 2004-05, when he picked up 20 wickets in the Ford Ranger Cup with excellent late over bowling, he was hampered by a knee injury in the 2006-07 season. His one day bowling has since developed well, and he can bowl excellent swinging yorkers. Geeves currently opens the bowling and is having an outstading season in all forms of the game, and is slowely developing into a bowling all-rounder, batting at number 7 and holds the ability to bat out an innings.
Geeves was an integral part of the 2007-08 Ford Ranger Cup final team, taking 3/28 from eight overs and winning man of the match.
