Walter John Dudley (29 May 1918 – 5 April 1978) was an Australian sportsman who played first-class cricket with Victoria and Australian rules football for Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Known as 'Wal', Dudley was born in Fitzroy and played three games for their VFL side in 1940.
In four first-class cricket matches with Victoria as a right arm fast bowler he took 11 wickets at 36.54.
He twice dismissed Bill Brown in a match against Queensland[1] but his career highlight was claiming Don Bradman for a duck, when the great Australian batsman was playing for South Australia.
