Sean Robert Dickson (born 2 September 1991) is an English-South African cricketer who plays as a right-handed top-order batter. Dickson was born in Johannesburg and made his first-class debut in South Africa before signing for Kent in July 2015, qualifying as a non-overseas player due to his British mother and UK passport.[1][2] Dickson scored 318 for Kent in July 2017, the county's second highest individual score and making him one of only two men to have made a triple-century for Kent.[3]

In July 2020 Dickson joined Durham, initially on loan before a permanent move to the county in November 2020. He had declined a contract extension at Kent.[4] In September 2022 it was announced that Dickson would join Somerset ahead of the 2023 season.[5]
