Sean Tracy

Sean Robert Tracy (born 7 June 1963) is a former New Zealand cricketer who played for Auckland, Canterbury and Otago in a top-level career which lasted from the 1982–83 season until 1990–91.

[2] A right-arm fast bowler, he played in age-group sides for both Auckland and New Zealand during the 1981–82 season before making his senior representative debut for Auckland the following season whilst regular bowlers Martin Snedden and Gary Troup were touring Australia with the New Zealand national side.

He took the wickets of leading batsmen Bruce Edgar and Jeff Crowe, and with bowlers Geoff Howarth and Martin Snedden carrying injuries, Tracy was called into the tour party after the second Test match.

[3][8] This performance, his first five-wicket haul, led to Wisden suggesting that he "gave promise that he might answer some of New Zealand's bowling problems in the future" in its review of the tour.

[4][8] Considered over-reliant on his pace and unable to "get enough swing or movement off the pitch to worry topliners consistently",[9] he played Second XI matches for Auckland during the 1987–88 and 1988–89 seasons before playing one final season of top-level cricket for Otago in 1990–91.
