Lou Vincent (born 11 November 1978 in Warkworth, New Zealand) is a member of the New Zealand cricket team

A right-handed batsman, Vincent made his Test match debut in 2001-02 when he opened the batting against Australia at Perth. In a bizarre New Zealand first innings of 534/9 declared which saw four players make hundreds but no-one else reach double figures, Vincent made 104. He followed this up with 54 in the second innings.

Lou Vincent lived in Adelaide Australia as a child and played cricket at Prospect District Cricket Club. Vincent was recognised at an early age scoring an unbeaten double century for the C grade at the age of 16.

In 2005-06, Vincent hit 172 in a One Day International against Zimbabwe at Harare to set a new record for the highest individual innings for New Zealand in ODIs, beating Glenn Turner's 171 not out against East Africa in the 1975 World Cup. Vincent's innings came off just 120 balls, and included 16 fours and nine sixes.

In 2006, Vincent signed for Worcestershire to play county cricket for part of the English season. He had a fine debut on 25 June, making 83 from 91 balls to help set up a 50-run win over Yorkshire in the C&G Trophy.

Vincent was recalled into the New Zealand squad for the Commonwealth Bank Tri Series due to the sudden retirement of veteran Nathan Astle midway through the series. Once in Australia he became New Zealand's most prolific run scorer, with three consecutive half centuries, contributing to three consecutive totals of over 290.

Vincent played in the early stages of the 2007 World Cup in the Caribbean but after scoring a century and fielding well he caught a blow in the nets from Shane Bond and fractured his wrist. He was replaced in the squad by Hamish Marshall.

One of the more colourful moments of Vincent's career was in 2006 during the one day series between New Zealand and the West Indies. During the fifth match, Lou was fielding on the boundary and after a piece of clumsy fielding, found himself [http://content-sl.cricinfo.com/slc/content/image/239543.html with his pants down] , with nowhere to hide from the fans, nor the camera men.

Vincent is the son of ABC NewsRadio sports announcer Mike Vincent.

In February 2008, Vincent's contract with New Zealand Cricket was terminated due to his involvement with the Indian Cricket League. [cite web |title=New Zealand terminate Vincent's contract |author=Cricinfo staff |url=http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/england/content/story/340129.html |publisher=Cricinfo |date=2008-02-28 |accessdate=2008-06-05] He has also stated his Black Caps career is over and he will be removing his fern tattoo.

On 18th March 2008, Lancashire League side Ramsbottom announced that they had signed Lou Vincent as a professional for the 2008 season. Vincent will be replacing previous club professional, Sunil Joshi.

In June 2008, whilst playing for Ramsbottom, Vincent was signed by Lancashire County Cricket Club as a replacement overseas player for the duration of the 2008 Twenty20 tournament. He replaced Mohammed Yousef as the club's overseas player, who himself had replaced the Australian Brad Hodge - both were on International duty. Lancashire's cricket manager, Mike Watkinson, said that the club "have brought in a player with a great reputation in the format who will add firepower to our top order. He is an exciting player and excellent fielder, just what we need for Twenty20 cricket".

The innings came after Vincent was controversially dropped (following some low scores) for the Yorkshire home game 72 hours earlier which Lancashire lost by 4 runs at Old Trafford (Manchester).

Vincent followed this up by hitting 56 from 36 balls in Lancashire's eighth Twenty20 group gameVersus Nottinghamshire on Wednesday June 25 (also at Old Trafford) the innings came of 36 balls and included 9 x 4's and 1 x 6.
