About Phil Carlson
- Phillip Henry Carlson (born 8 August 1951, Nundah, Queensland) is a former Australian cricketer who played in two Tests and four One Day Internationals (ODIs) in 1979. Carlson was an all-rounder who played for Queensland between 1969–70 and 1980–81.
- He played two Test matches for Australia v England in 1978–79 Ashes series and four One Day Internationals against the same opponents.
- He was called up by Australia when most of their regular first-choice players were playing in World Series Cricket. Carlson took two Test wickets and two ODI wickets.
- Graham Gooch was his most popular victim.
- He dismissed him once in Tests (50% of wickets) and he got him out twice in ODI (100%). Former Australian selector John Benaud criticised the Test selection of Carlson, supposedly as an allrounder but whose "slow, gentle mediums" and batting ability at number six was not what Australian captain Graham Yallop needed.
