James Charles Hildreth (born 9 September 1984 in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire) is an English cricketer who plays for Somerset County Cricket Club. He attended Millfield School, Somerset. He is a right-handed batsman and occasional right-arm medium pace bowler. Hildreth represented England at all youth levels including the 2003–04 Under-19 World cup held in Bangladesh. He made his first-class debut in 2003 and has been a regular member of the side since the start of the 2004 season.
Born in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, Hildreth attended Millfield, an independent school in Street, Somerset described as a "great nursery of the game [of cricket]". He finished third in the school's batting averages in 2000, with 30.38 and a top-score of 75 not out. The following season his batting figures were significantly worse—he averaged just 14.30—but he topped the school's bowling averages with 11.41, his best figures being 4/2. In 2002, Hildreth was one of three Millfield pupils chosen to play in the annual ECB try-out match. He didn't score enough runs to be included in Wisden's school batting averages in 2002, but his 17 wickets taken at an average of 13.05 rated him as the school's joint highest wicket-taker, and third in the averages. In July 2002, Hildreth made his first appearance for the Somerset Second XI, replacing Peter Trego who, after scoring 188 runs in the first-innings, left the match due to being called up to the first-team. Hildreth bowled 13.1 wicket-less overs during Warwickshire Second XI's first-innings, and scored 32 in Somerset's second-innings, as they lost by an innings. The following month, he made his List A debut, representing Somerset Cricket Board against Cornwall in the first round of the Cheltenham and Gloucester Trophy. Hildreth claimed one wicket during his six overs, and added four runs from number seven.
