Hilton William Raymond Cartwright (born 14 February 1992) is an Australian cricketer who has played domestically for Western Australia and the Perth Scorchers.

Born in Harare, Zimbabwe,[1] Cartwright spent his early life in Marondera, but later emigrated to Australia with his family, attending Wesley College in Perth.[2] He played representative cricket for Western Australia at the 2008–09 Australian Under-17 Championships, and subsequently progressed to the state's under-23 side in the Futures League, debuting in February 2012.[3] After good form in a Futures League match against the Queensland Academy of Sport, recording a half-century and a five-wicket haul,[4] Cartwright was selected to debut for Western Australia's team for the 2012–13 Ryobi One-Day Cup against Victoria at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, held on 7 November 2012.[5] In the match, Cartwright scored four runs from seven deliveries coming in at number seven in the batting order, and took a single wicket in Victoria's innings bowling medium pace, Western Australia's only wicket of the match.[6]

Cartwright has since played a number of further one-day matches for Western Australia, and in December 2012 was named in the Perth Scorchers' squad for the 2012–13 Big Bash League season, replacing the injured Pat Cummins.[7] He debuted for Perth in the second match of the competition, against the Melbourne Stars, and top-scored with 17 runs from Perth's innings of 69, the lowest completed score recorded in the tournament.[8] Cartwright made his first-class debut for Western Australia in January 2013, against New South Wales in the Sheffield Shield.[9] At grade cricket level, he plays for the South Perth Cricket Club.[10] Also holding British citizenship,[11] Cartwright spent the 2010 English season playing for Sidmouth in the Devon Cricket League.[12]
