Neil Douglas McKenzie (born 24 November 1975 in Johannesburg) is a South African cricketer. He is a right handed middle order batsman and played for South Africa between 2000 and 2004. Strong on the leg side, he is also a very good player of spin.
Neil McKenzie was a promising junior cricketer, captaining the South African Schools and Under-19 sides. His Test debut came as an opening batsman in a tour of Sri Lanka but like his father Kevin McKenzie he soon cemented his place in the South African middle order.
He made his maiden Test hundred against New Zealand in 2000-01. Another century soon came, against Sri Lanka at Supersport Park but it would be his last. From there on in he couldn't convert his 12 50's into hundreds although he came close when he was run out by Damien Martyn for 99. After a bunch of low scores was dropped from the side.
