Graeme Clifford Rummans (born 13 December 1976) is an Australian cricketer. He grew up in the suburb of Camperdown in Sydney. He is a left-handed batsman who bowls slow left-arm orthodox.

He initially debuted for the New South Wales Sheffield Shield team on 5 March 1998. Batting at number six he only managed eleven when he was trapped in front by Colin Miller.

His career suffered a major setback in 2002 when he tested positive for the banned masking agent probenecid. For his offence he received a one-month ban from all cricket and a A$2000 fine.[1]

Ahead of the following season he moved to Victoria in an effort to further his first-class career, yet despite large success at club level with St Kilda (where he won consecutive Ryder Medals as the best player in Premier Cricket), Rummans was unable to attain a regular position with the state team.

He moved back to New South Wales after the 2006/7 season for family reasons and captained St George to successive First Grade premierships. He returned to Victoria for the 2009/10 season, during which he won his third Ryder Medal.
