'''Shane Michael Harwood''' (born 1 March 1974) is an Australian former international [[cricket]]er who played for the [[Victoria cricket team]]. He played in one [[One Day International]] and three [[Twenty20 International]] matches.

==Early life==
Harwood grew up in [[Ballarat]], Victoria playing both indoor and outdoor cricket until a back injury kept him out of the game for two years.<ref name="CodeBIO">{{cite web |last1=Amy |first1=Paul |title=Shane Harwood's bouncers, barbs, pace and tattoos put the 'fear of God into' batsmen |url=https://www.codesports.com.au/cricket/domestic-cricket/shane-harwoods-bouncers-barbs-pace-and-tattoos-put-the-fear-of-god-into-batsmen/news-story/1ec0030203c65b45cf1aeaa6c47d450f |website=Code Sports |publisher=News Corporation Australia |access-date=8 December 2022 |date=7 December 2022}}</ref> Upon his return, he won the Ballarat Cricket Association's best player medal in a premiership season with his club Brown Hill.<ref name="CodeBIO"/>

Moving to Melbourne, he was recruited by the [[Melbourne Cricket Club]] (MCC) ahead of the 1999–20 season. He would start with the MCC's second XI, quickly progressing to the first XI where he took 46 wickets for the season.<ref name="CodeBIO"/>

==Domestic career==

Harwood began his [[Sheffield Shield]] career as a 28-year-old playing for [[Victoria cricket team|Victoria]] in [[2002–03 Sheffield Shield season|2002–03]] and became the third Australian to get a [[Hat-trick (cricket)|hat-trick]] on debut. Harwood took the wickets of Tasmanian batters [[Shane Watson]] and [[Graeme Cunningham (cricketer)|Graeme Cunningham]], before bowling [[Sean Clingeleffer]] to complete the hat-trick. Interviewed by the media, Victorian teammate [[Shane Warne]] drove past in his Ferrari, tooting his horn and revving the engine, shouting out "next Australian quick."<ref name="CodeBIO"/>

Harwood was also a useful tailender who in the [[Australian domestic limited-overs cricket tournament|ING Cup]] once scored a 31-ball 50.

On 16 January 2006 Harwood took career-best figures of 6/38 in a [[Sheffield Shield|Pura Cup]] match against New South Wales. In 2006–07, he claimed 26 first class wickets at 30.26 and 13 wickets at 16.30 in the domestic one-dayers as his sharp pace and awkward bounce dried up the opposition's runs.

Harwood's career was limited by injuries, including a broken leg, a broken eye socket and depressed cheekbone, a broken hand, hamstring problems, and a shoulder reconstruction.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Saltau |first1=Chloe |title=SHANE Harwood has broken down again, and this time the future looks bleak. |work=The Age |publisher=Fairfax Digital |date=14 November 2009 |location=Melbourne, Victoria |page=5}}</ref><ref name="CodeBIO"/>

He was also selected for [[Rajasthan Royals]] team in the [[Indian Premier League]] and he made his IPL debut on 2 May 2009 where he took a wicket of the first ball he bowled for the Rajasthan Royals. In the final year of his domestic career in 2012, he had [[Twenty20|T20]] stints with [[Melbourne Renegades]] and [[Barisal Burners]].<ref name="CodeBIO"/> Harwood would eventually return to his home town club of Brown Hill and in his last season at 43-years-old would score 553 runs and claim 31 wickets.<ref name="CodeBIO"/>

==International career==

Harwood represented Australia A and was suggested by teammate [[Shane Warne]] as being a contender for the 2006 Australian Test tour of South Africa. Although he did not make the Test squad, he was a surprise selection for [[Australia national cricket team|Australia]] in a [[Twenty20 International]] game against England in early 2007, taking the wicket of [[Andrew Flintoff]] in a spell of 1/44.

He was named in the Australian 30-man preliminary squad for the 2007 World Cup, but did not make the final squad.

On 12 March 2009, Harwood was selected for the 16-man [[Australian cricket team in South Africa in 2008–09|Australian]] one-day squad in South Africa. He played both Twenty20 Internationals, taking 2/21 in the second match off his four overs. He made his [[One Day International]] debut for Australia against South Africa on 13 April 2009, with bowling figures of 2/57 from his ten overs, taking the wickets of [[Jacques Kallis]] and [[JP Duminy]].<ref name="CodeBIO"/>
