Geoffrey Allan Wilfred Blakely (born 30 October 1959) is a New Zealand former cricketer. He played nine first-class and two List A matches for Otago between 1980 and 1985. [1]
Blakely was an opening batsman. His best two first-class matches were both against Auckland in 1980–81. In the first, at Eden Park, he made 74 and 22; [2] in the second, at Carisbrook, he made 26 and 43. [3] In all first-class matches he made 325 runs at an average of 18.05. [4] Blakely also appeared in two List A matches for Otago, scoring 55 runs at an average of 27.50 with a top score of 44. [1]
As a rugby union footballer, Blakely made one appearance playing at lock for Otago Sub-Unions in 1981. [5]
Two of Blakely's children have also played representative cricket for Otago: his son Sam, has played five List A matches for Otago, debuting in 2012/13; and his daughter Caitlin has made over 100 women's List A and Twenty20 appearances for Otago since the 2012/13 season.
