Wayne Maxwell Clark is a former Australian cricketer who played in 10 Test matches and two One Day Internationals from 1977 to 1979. In his first eight first class games Clark took 30 wickets at an average of 28.

Clark had an excellent game, taking 4–46 in the first innings (including the wickets of Sunil Gavaskar and Mohinder Amarnath) and 4–101 in the second (including Gavaskar again and Dilip Vengsarkar).
