Douglas Green (19 May 1902 – 28 November 1990) was an Australian cricketer. He played 25 first-class matches for Tasmania between 1924 and 1937.[1]
A determined batsman with a "rock-like defence"[2] Doug Green's highest score was 150 not out, when, captaining Tasmania, he saved them from defeat against Victoria in 1932-33, batting throughout the last day's play to erase a 269-run first-innings deficit.[3]
