Dennis John Lillie (born 28 October 1945) is a former Australian cricketer. A leg spin bowler he played in the Queensland state team 17 times between 1966 and 1981.[1] He was educated at the Anglican Church Grammar School in Brisbane.[2]
Lillie's career partly overlapped with that of Australian fast bowler and ICC Cricket Hall of Fame inductee Dennis Lillee.[3] The two similarly, but not exactly, named players never appeared together in the starting lineups of the same game, however Lillie was twelfth man in a Queensland v Western Australia Sheffield Shield game during the 1980–81 season, and in fact caught Lillee in the first innings of that game. The following line appears from that scorecard: DK Lillee c sub (DJ Lillie) b GS Chappell 11
In a South Australia v Queensland match in 1982, David Hookes hit four consecutive sixes, and 28 runs in an over, off Lillie’s bowling.[4]
