**Matthew Jeffrey Allen Whiley** (born 6 May 1980) is a former English [cricketer](/source/Cricket). Whiley was a right-handed [batsman](/source/Batsman_(cricket)) who bowled left-arm [fast-medium](/source/Fast_bowling). He played for [Nottinghamshire](/source/Nottinghamshire_County_Cricket_Club) and [Leicestershire](/source/Leicestershire_County_Cricket_Club) during a five-year first-class career.[1]

The Nottingham native, who has one Youth Test match, made his County Championship debut in the 1998 season, though he mostly appeared for the second team between then and 2001. Whiley started appearing more commonly for Leicestershire in April 2001, the season after their promotion from Division Two of the County Championship. He stayed with the first team until 2003, when Leicestershire were relegated and subsequently had a mass-clearout. Whiley was a tail-ending batsman for both his county sides.
