'''Trevor Victor Hohns''' (born 23 January 1954) is a former [[Queensland]] and [[Australia]]n [[cricket]]er who played in seven [[Test cricket|Test matches]] as a spin bowler, and was later Australia's chairman of selectors.
Earlier in his career when Hohns was a relatively obscure player on the fringes of Queensland cricket, he signed up to play for [[South African rebel tours#Australian tours, 1985–86 and 1986–87|the Rebel Australians during the controversial South African series in
Hohns played all of his seven tests in 1989, making his international debut at the age of 35. He played in the final two tests of the [[West Indian cricket team in Australia in 1988–89|1988–89 series against the West Indies]], and in five tests of the [[1989 Ashes series]] in England. Although most of the bowling success in that series was due to the fast bowling trio of [[Terry Alderman]], [[Geoff Lawson (cricketer)|Geoff Lawson]] and [[Merv Hughes]], Hohns took 11 wickets, and averaged 31.75 with the bat.<ref>[https://stats.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/records/averages/batting_bowling_by_team.html?id=300;team=2;type=series THE ASHES, 1989 – AUSTRALIA / BATTING AND BOWLING AVERAGES], [[ESPNcricinfo]]</ref>
Hohns also was a handy late-order batsman, often batting as high as number six for Queensland in [[Sheffield Shield]] cricket. He finished his first-class career with two centuries and 30 half-centuries from 152 matches, though 40 was his best Test score among his seven innings.
