Liam Watkinson (born 27 July 1991) is an English cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and was a right-arm medium-pace bowler. He now chucks the occasional filth which purports to be off spin. He usually bowls himself against 8, 9 , 10 and jack to get a few cheap wickets.

He made his first-class debut for Leeds/Bradford MCCU against Sussex [1] on 2 April 2015. Liam's father is former international cricketer Mike Watkinson, who played four Tests and a single One Day International for England between 1995 and 1996, and also played for Lancashire between 1982 and 2000.
