Alex Tyson Carey (born 27 August 1991) is an Australian cricketer and former Australian rules footballer.
He is a wicket-keeper who plays for Australian national team.
In domestic cricket he plays for South Australia and Adelaide Strikers.
He was the captain of the Greater Western Sydney Giants in 2010, but when they joined the Australian Football League in 2012 he was left out of the squad and returned to his home state of South Australia, where he began to play domestic cricket. Carey initially made his debut as a specialist top-order batsman in 2013, but was unsuccessful and dropped after just three first-class matches.
He moved down the batting order and became a wicket-keeper, making his return to South Australia's first-class side in the 2015–16 season.
In the 2016–17 Sheffield Shield season Carey was the fourth player in history to score 500 runs and take 50 dismissals in a season and broke the record for most wicket-keeper dismissals in a season with 59.
