William Gifford (cricketer)

William McLean Gifford (born 10 October 1985 in Sutton Coldfield) is an English cricketer: a right-handed batsman with Worcestershire.

Gifford toured India with the England Under-19s in 2004-05, and in April 2005 made his first-class debut, captaining Loughborough UCCE against Sussex at Hove. He has since made several further first-class appearances as skipper for Loughborough, including in their famous eight-wicket defeat of Worcestershire at Kidderminster in May 2005.

He has played for Worcestershire's second team since 2003, but as of the end of the 2006 season had not played a first-class game for the county. He did, however, make his List A debut for them in a 50-over match against West Indies A at the end of July, batting at five but being dismissed for just 1.
