Bradley John Hodge (born 29 December 1974) is an Australian cricket coach and former cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman who batted in the middle order, as well as a part-time right-arm off-spin bowler. Hodge was a member of the Australian team that won the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

Hodge was a prolific run-scorer in domestic cricket, holding the records for the most runs (5,597) and most centuries (20) in Australian interstate one-day matches.[4] He is also Victoria's highest ever run-scorer in the Sheffield Shield (10,474 runs).[5] However, his opportunities to represent Australia were limited to 6 Tests, 25 one-day internationals (ODIs)[6] and 15 T20 Internationals.
