Lawrence Anderson "Fish" Markham (born 12 September 1924 in Mbabane, Swaziland, died 5 August 2000 in Pietermaritzburg, Natal) was a South African cricketer who played in one Test in 1949.[1]

Markham was a right-handed lower-order batsman and a right-arm leg-break bowler. His single Test was the fourth match of the 1948–49 England tour series and he was the third spin bowler alongside Tufty Mann and Athol Rowan. He scored 20 in his single innings and took just one wicket in the game and was dropped for the next match.[2]
