Alexia Laurette Walker (born 26 November 1982) is an English cricketer who plays as an all-rounder. She is a right-handed batter and right-arm fast-medium bowler. She appeared in three One Day Internationals for England in August 2001, making her debut against Scotland. In total she took one wicket and scored 14 runs.[1] She played domestic cricket for Sussex from 1998 to 2015, before returning to play for them in 2023.[2][3]

In June 2009 Walker was appointed as the cricket director at Brighton College, a co-educational private school in Brighton. She is the first woman cricket director at an English private school. Previously she was cricket performance manager at Loughborough University.[4]

In January 2010 Walker became one of only three women to pass the ECB Level 4 Coaching Certificate and was believed to be the youngest candidate of either sex to gain the award.[5]
