Andrew Richard Caddick (born 21 November 1968) is an England cricketer.
Caddick was born in Christchurch, New Zealand, and had played for New Zealand in the Youth World Cup of 1987/88. He toured England the following summer, and decided to settle in the country.
Caddick made his county cricket debut for Somerset in 1991 against the West Indians, and has played all his county cricket for Somerset.
He made his Test match debut in 1993, but took some time to settle into the side. Although he has had considerable success in his international career, becoming part of the select band of England bowlers to take over 200 Test wickets, he has never entirely convinced the selectors the highest level, and has been in and out of the England side. Some commentators point out that the bulk of Caddick's best performances have come in the second-innings.
Caddick was named as one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the Year for 2000.
