Frederik Andreas Klokker (born March 13, 1983 in Odense) is a Danish cricketer. A left-handed wicketkeeper batsman, he was an MCC Young Cricketer for 4 years. At one stage he was a substitute fielder for England in a game at Lord's.
When he turned out for Warwickshire, Klokker became the fifth Dane to play county cricket. The others are Ole Mortensen, Amjad Khan, Soren Henriksen and Thomas Hansen. He played as a keeper and took 3 catches in the first innings. He batted as a nightwatchman and scored 40.
In 2007 he joined Derbyshire as reserve wicket-keeper and in their first-class match against Cambridge University in April he scored his debut first-class century with precisely 100 not out.
For the 2008 season he stayed with Derbyshire and went on their pre-season tour to The Caribbean. He scored a century in the second team and has broken into the first team due to injury to another player. In May Klokker became the first Dane to score a century in county cricket when he made his second century, against Warwickshire, an innings made even more remarkable by the fact that in the first innings of the same match, he scored a golden duck. He has also played for Berkswell CC with such professionals as Daan van Bunge and Shoaib Akhtar.
Outside of cricket he works for a stamp collecting firm. [1]
