Richard William Sladdin (born 8 January 1969) is an English former cricketer who played for Derbyshire from 1991 to 1994 and for Somerset in 1997.
A common fixture until the middle of the 1994 season, his career was quickly over, as he hit zero wickets for 190 runs, the single worst bowling figures in the history of Derbyshire County Cricket Club.
But he was unmasked when he turned up at a car park 30 miles from home with a packet of crisps, an alcoholic drink and a box of condoms - only to be confronted by a man who showed him his incriminating messages.
Self-proclaimed paedophile hunters filmed the encounter in Leigh, Greater Manchester, on a mobile and the video went viral with more than two million views.
He was jailed for 12 months at Bolton Crown Court after he pleaded guilty to sexual grooming and attempting to meet a girl under the age of 16.
