Alan William Lilley (born 8 May 1959) is a former English first-class cricketer.[1]
Lilley was born in Ilford and played for Essex from 1978 to 1990 during the most successful period in their history. A right-handed opening batsman, he scored 4,495 runs in 120 first-class matches and a further 2,800 runs in one day games. Opening the batting with Graham Gooch, he scored a century on his first-class debut in the last match of the 1978 County Championship, helping Essex to a nine-wicket victory over Nottinghamshire.[2]
Lilley top-scored in the final of the Benson & Hedges Cup in 1989 with 95 not out, although he finished on the losing side on this occasion as Nottinghamshire won off the last ball.[3] He also played at Lord's as Essex beat Nottinghamshire in the final of the 1985 NatWest Trophy (although not required to bat on that occasion). Essex won four County Championships while he was with the county, in 1979, 1983, 1984 and 1986. Lilley later worked for the county club as an administrator.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
On October 2010, Lilley was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault at a sports ground in Chelmsford but shortly released on bail. As a result of the arrest, he quit his £75,000 job as an executive at Essex County Cricket Club 10 days later. All charges against him were later dropped.[4][5]
