"Stephen John Rixon" is the current Australian cricket fielding coach.
Rixon first came to public attention as a sixteen year-old during the 1970/71 Marylebone Cricket Club tour of Australia, when England's wicket-keeper Alan Knott applauded Rixon's efforts for a Southern New South Wales team against the MCC. Rixon subsequently moved to Sydney to play initially for Waverley before transferring to Western Suburbs.
He played in 13 Test cricket/Tests and 6 One Day Internationals between 1977 and 1985. He came into the Australian cricket team/Australian side as wicket-keeper in 1977–78 after Rod Marsh/Rodney Marsh joined World Series Cricket, losing his place on Marsh's return. In 1984–85 he came back in when Marsh retired and Wayne B. Phillips/Wayne Phillips was injured.
In 1985–86 Rixon joined the rebel tour of South Africa, but on his return was unable to rejoin the national team.
Since retiring from playing, he has been the coach of the New Zealand cricket team, New South Wales, Surrey, Hyderabad Heroes of the Indian Cricket League and currently, The Scots College/The Scots College, Sydney.
