Christopher David Whelan is an English cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium bowler, who has represented Middlesex and Worcestershire. He scored a record 177 not out for his school, St Margaret's, in an under-15 final. Whelan played for Middlesex's second team in 2003, but made his List A debut on 2 September 2004, when he appeared against Sussex in a totesport League game at Hove. In a crushing 135-run defeat, Whelan's success was very limited: he returned an analysis of 7?0?40?0 and scored 6 at the bottom of the order. Early in 2005, Whelan was named by the Liverpool Echo as Merseyside Young Sports Personality of the Year. He was quoted by the newspaper as saying that he had been encouraged by John Emburey. In early May, he made his first-class debut in a County Championship match against Hampshire at Southampton, and took three wickets. His first victim was Zimbabwe international Sean Ervine, whose wicket he claimed in both innings. He also turned out against Cambridge UCCE at the start of June, but made no other first-team appearances that season. In 2006 Whelan made a solitary List A appearance, this coming against Nottinghamshire.
