Dominic Peter Sibley (born 5 September 1995) is an English cricketer who plays for Warwickshire. He is a right-handed batsman who bowls right-arm leg break. He made his List A debut for Surrey against Essex on 2 August 2013, though he had to retire not out due to injury.[1]

In just his third first-class cricket match, while still a student at Whitgift School, he scored a double century against Yorkshire aged 18 years and 21 days. In doing so he became the youngest double-centurion in the history of the County Championship, the second-youngest Englishman to score a first-class double hundred and the thirteenth youngest double-centurion of any nationality.[2] On the final day of the four-day match, Sibley was out (bowled by Ryan Sidebottom) for 242.[3]

In August 2017, Sibley turned down an offer of a new three-year contract with Surrey to join Warwickshire ahead of the 2018 season.[4] On 3 August 2017, Sibley moved on loan to Warwickshire for the remainder of the 2017 season with Rikki Clarke moving in the other direction.[5]
