Shane Clifton Clements (28 June 1958 – 22 April 2001) was an Australian cricketer who played several seasons for Western Australia during the early 1980s.

From

McDonald's Cup competitions.[2][3] In his inaugural first-class match, a Sheffield Shield game against Queensland, he scored two half-centuries (73 and 86), and featured in opening partnerships of 127 and 171 with Geoff Marsh.[4] Clements was a somewhat-regular selection at state level for the following three seasons. Alternating between the middle order and the opening positions, he played four matches during the 1982–83 Sheffield Shield season, averaging 26.33 with a highest score of 45.[5]

The 1983–84 season was Clements' most successful, with his seven matches producing 480 runs at an average of 40.00, including one century and three half-centuries.

Rob Gartrell, Peter Gonnella, and Gary Ireland in the middle order at various points during the season.[8] His contributions at List A level remained limited, and he was not selected for Western Australia after that season.[9] Clements committed suicide in April 2001, dying at the age of 42.[10][11]
