Lyndsay Nicholas Peter Walker (born 22 June 1974) is a former Australian cricketer who represented Nottinghamshire in English county cricket. He played as a wicket-keeper.

Walker was born in Armidale, New South Wales.[1] He left Australia in 1992 to play in England, qualifying for Nottinghamshire by residency.[2] Walker made his first-class debut in July 1994, in a match against the touring South Africans.[3] He made his County Championship debut in 1996, and his limited-overs debut shortly after, in the 1996 NatWest Trophy.[4] In the 1997–98 off-season, Walker sustained a hand injury that ended his professional playing career, despite several operations to repair it.[5] In total, he made twelve first-class and three List A appearances for Nottinghamshire.[6] After the end of his playing career, Walker worked as a development coach with Nottinghamshire for several years.[7] In 2000, he took up a coaching position with the Malaysian Cricket Association, going on to coach the Malaysian national team at the 2001 ICC Trophy in Canada.[8]
