Declan Martin Patrick Moore (born 5 July 1975) is a former Irish first-class cricketer.
Moore was born in Dublin and played his club cricket for The Hills.[1] Prior to playing first-class cricket, Moore held an amateur jockey license.[1] He spent the winter of 1995 in New Zealand, where he played club cricket for Mount Manganui Cricket Club, and came close to selection for the Northern Districts.[1] Returning to Ireland, he made his debut for Ireland in a List A one-day match against Gloucestershire in the 1996 Benson & Hedges Cup at Dublin,[2] when he was called up as a late replacement for Uel Graham.[1] The following week he played against Surrey in the competition at Eglinton, before following this up in June with another List A appearance against Sussex at Hove in the NatWest Trophy.[2] In August 1996, he made his only appearance in first-class cricket for Ireland against Scotland at Linlithgow.[3] In a drawn match, Moore batted twice, scoring 51 runs in Ireland's first-innings before being dismissed by James Govan, while in their second-innings he was dismissed by Mike Allingham. Across both of Scotland's innings, he also bowled six wicket-less overs.[4] Moore made a final List A appearance for Ireland against Glamorgan at Cardiff in the 1997 NatWest Trophy.[2] This was his last major appearance for Ireland. Moore struggled to make an impact in his four List A appearances for Ireland, scoring just 15 runs at a low average of 3.75, and a highest score of 10.[5]
