Brendan Paul Nash (born 14 December 1977) is a Jamaican Australian cricketer who has played Test and One Day International cricket for West Indies. He has also played first-class cricket for Jamaica, Queensland and Kent.

Brendan Nash was born in Attadale, Western Australia. He lived in Perth, Cairns and Brisbane and studied at Nudgee College in 1993–94. Brendan Nash qualified to play for Jamaica through his father, Paul, a Jamaican Olympic swimmer.

Nash played grade cricket in Brisbane, and was leading run scorer in the 1999–2000 Brisbane XXXX competition. Before breaking into the senior side, Nash represented Queensland at under-19 level as well as playing for the Queensland Colts and Queensland Academy of Sport (QAS). On one occasion, Nash was pressed into service as a makeshift wicket-keeper for QAS when the first choice keeper was injured with a suspected broken thumb. Nash made his debut for the Queensland Bulls in 2001 when he came into the side as cover for injured batsman Martin Love. He scored his maiden first-class century in 2002 when he batted at number four and scored 157 as Queensland defeated the Southern Redbacks at the Adelaide Oval. Nash was promoted to open for Queensland and cemented his place there. In the 2001/02 Pura Cup final, Nash scored 96 against the Tasmanian Tigers as Queensland won the cup. He achieved a cult following with a "Brendan Nash Fan Club" founded among university students in Brisbane.
