Ian Wayne Callen (born 2 May 1955, in Alexandra, Victoria) is a former Australian cricketer who played in one Test and 5 ODIs from 1978 to 1982.

His only test came against India in Adelaide in 1978 in which he took 6 wickets, helping bowl Australia to a series-winning victory. He also toured both the West Indies and Pakistan with the Australian side.

He runs his own company in the Yarra Valley manufacturing cricket bats.[1] Using wood from his willow plantation near Healesville he makes each bat by hand.[2]
