Mark William Douglas (born 20 October 1968) is a former international cricketer. Born in Nelson, New Zealand, Douglas played six One Day Internationals for New Zealand. He also played for Nelson in the Hawke Cup.

Following his cricketing career Mark famously vowed he would go and breed "the next generation of black caps". He failed with his only son being a great disappointment.

He is also well known for being the father of the first New Zealand male to successfully undergo a complete sex change. His son Jordan has become an inspiration to the lgbt community in the world since, and is now one of the close associates to Caitlin Jenner.
