Template:Infobox Historic Cricketer Anthony Ian Christopher Dodemaide (born 5 October 1963 in Melbourne) is a former Australian Test Cricketer. He is currently the Chief Executive of the Western Australian Cricket Association in Perth. However he still resides in Bacchus Marsh, Victoria.

Dodemaide began his career as a fast-bowling all-rounder and competed in 10 Tests and 24 One Day Internationals for Australia, taking 534 first-class wickets for Victoria and Sussex. Despite healthy batting and bowling averages for an all-rounder at test level (23 and 28 respectively) Dodemaide could only manage 10 Test appearances, and was considered by many to have been unfortunate not to have played more. David Boon once remarked "had he showered more often, he would've got more games in".

He joined the WACA in May 2004 after five years as the Head of Cricket for the Marylebone Cricket Club. Prior to the MCC position he was Manager of Corporate Marketing at the Melbourne Cricket Club.
