Mark James Cosgrove (born 14 June 1984, in Elizabeth, South Australia) is a left handed batsman and part time bowler for South Australia Redbacks cricket team. In 2005 Mark won the Bradman Young Player of the Year award. He was dropped from the state squad in early 2005 because of claims that he was overweight, but is now back in the South Australian Redbacks squad.
Cosgrove debuted internationally with a One Day International against Bangladesh at Fatullah on 28 April 2006, responding with an aggressive half century. He was regarded as a dark horse for selection in the 2007 World Cup however a poor 2006/2007 season with South Australia meant he wasn't selected.
He was signed by Glamorgan in 2006. In 2007 he declined an offer to return, instead joining the Centre of Excellence in Australia at the request of Andrew Hilditch.
On 25 July 2007 Cosgrove was suspended from the Centre of Excellence for disciplinary reasons.
