Australian Cricket Hall of Fame

thumb|Current logo for the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame

The Australian Cricket Hall of Fame is a part of the Australian Gallery of Sport and Olympic Museum in the Australian Sports Museum at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. This hall of fame commemorates the greatest Australian cricketers of all time, as the "selection philosophy for the hall of fame focuses on the players' status as sporting legends in addition to their outstanding statistical records."

The hall of fame opened with ten inaugural members, ranging from Fred Spofforth, a pace bowler who retired from Test cricket in 1887, to Dennis Lillee who played his last Test match in 1984. , the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame comprises 61 members. All twelve members of the Australian Cricket Board Team of the Century are included, six of them amongst the inaugural members. The vast majority are men; Belinda Clark was the first woman admitted to the hall when she was inducted in 2014 (three years after she was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame). Five female Test captains have been admitted, along with 21 of their male counterparts. In December 2020, Johnny Mullagh became the first Indigenous Australian to be inducted into the hall of fame. Regarded as a standout player of the Aboriginal team which toured England in 1868, Mullagh is also the only member to have not played Test cricket for Australia.

The current selection committee comprises:

Peter King – ACHOF chairman and current MCC committee member
Belinda Clark – Former Test captain
Mark Taylor – Former Test captain
Paul Sheahan – Former Test batsman and former MCC President
Todd Greenberg – Australian Cricketers' Association CEO
Nick Hockley – Cricket Australia CEO
Greg Baum and Ben Horne – Media representatives

New members are inducted at the annual Australian Cricket Awards night.
