Peter Michael Clough (born 17 August 1956 in Sydney,New South Wales) was an Australian cricketer,who played for Tasmania and Western Australia.
He was a right-handed batsman and right arm fast-medium bowler who represented Tasmania from 1980 until 1984,and played for Western Australia until 1986. He was a useful bowler,who could be relied upon for Tasmania,at time when the struggling state side was trying to establish itself as a competitive team. In 1984,Clough took the best bowling figures for Tasmania in the Sheffield Shield,a record that stood until March 2022. [1]
His gritty bowling performances for Tasmania in the dark period of the early 1980s saw him added as a member of the state's elite Cricket Hall of Fame.
