Mark Burgess, New Zealand cricketer and footballer
Mark Gordon Burgess (born 17 July 1944) is a New Zealand former cricketer who captained the New Zealand cricket team from 1978 to 1980. He was a right-handed batsman, and bowled right-arm off-breaks. He played in New Zealand's first One Day International (ODI).

During the 1970s, the decade when Burgess played most of his international cricket and before the advent of professional sport in New Zealand, sportsmen were required to support themselves and take unpaid leave to complete overseas tours. In the mid-1970s he joined the staff of a leading Auckland sportsgoods wholesaler, Brittain Wynyard & Co. Ltd. Beginning as a sales representative, he became promotions manager of the company.

His father Gordon Burgess played for Auckland between 1940–41 and 1954–55 and managed the New Zealand team that toured England, India and Pakistan in 1969.
