Dan Liebke

Dan Liebke is a comedy writer, who was a regular contributor for MAD Magazine in Australia for two decades before coming to his senses and turning his comic focus to cricket. In addition to a social media presence on Twitter (@liebcricket) and BlueSky (@liebcricket.com), Dan has also contributed articles making fun of cricket and cricketers to the ABC Cricket Guide magazine as well as websites such as Cricket365, The Roar, The Guardian and others. He also co-hosts both the Can’t Bowl, Can’t Throw and Ridiculous Ashes cricket podcasts. As of 2024, he has published seven cricket books with the Slattery Media Group (The Instant Cricket Library, a comic anthology of fake excerpts from imaginary, unpublished and other hard-to-find cricket books) and Affirm Press (The 50 Greatest Matches in Australian Cricket, The 50 Greatest Australian Cricketers, The 100 Funniest Moments in Australian Cricket, and more!) . Dan is a genuine all-rounder, equally inept with both bat and ball, and he steadfastly believes that cricket is the funniest, and hence best, sport that humanity has ever invented.
