David John Richardson (born 16 September 1959) in Johannesburg played 42 Tests and 122 One Day Internationals for South Africa. He also represented Eastern Province in various domestic competitions.
For the first seven years after South Africa returned from isolation Richardson was a permanent fixture as wicket-keeper, his trademark sun hat and brown gloves was very recognisable. He was also a gritty batsman scoring a maiden and only Test century (109) against New Zealand at Cape Town in 1994-95.
He is a qualified lawyer and remained in cricket after retirement as a business agent for several players. In January 2002 he was appointed as the ICC's first General Manager. His son, Michael, plays county cricket in England for Durham.
