Geoffrey Miller, (born 8 September 1952) is an English former cricketer, who played in 34 Test matches and 25 One Day Internationals for the England cricket team between 1976 and 1984.
He played for Derbyshire from 1973 to 1986, captaining the side from 1979 to 1981 (following the sudden resignation of David Steele after six weeks in the role), and returned in 1990 after playing for Essex between 1987 and 1989.
He was an England selector from 2008 to 2013 and was appointed President of Derbyshire C.C.C.
in March 2014. The cricket writer, Colin Bateman, noted, "Geoff Miller concedes that he probably enjoyed cricket too much.
He did not take it as seriously as some, And when it became a rigorous, grim-faced business, he was not sorry to bow out of an eight-year Test career that never reached the peaks many expected".
Likewise Simon Hughes referred to Miller in 1990 as being "the only remaining player who unfailingly visited the opposing team's dressing room after play to thank them for the game ...
[and] the last man to field at slip with a whoopee cushion up his jumper"
