Danny James Buckingham (born 2 December 1964 in Burnie, Tasmania) was an Australian cricket player, who played for the Tasmanian Tigers from 1983-84, until 1993-94.
His batting style is right-hand bat and his bowling style is right-arm leg-spin.
Danny Buckingham was a reliable batting all-rounder, who only very occasionally bowled his right-arm leg spin, but contributed with the bat for Tasmania at a time when the fledgling state side was struggling for success.
His dogged contributions for a side which only very rarely managed to win matches sees him as a member of the state's elite Cricket Hall of Fame.
Danny has been appointed the senior coach of the Burnie/ Yeoman Cricket Club for season 2007/08.
