Christopher Timothy Tremlett (born 2 September 1981 in Southampton, Hampshire) is an English cricketer who plays for Hampshire County Cricket Club. He is 6 ft 7 in (2.01 m) tall.

Tremlett took a wicket with his first ball in first-class cricket against New Zealand A in 2000, dismissing Mark Richardson. He went to India with the Under-19s in 2000/01, and was one of the first cricketers to attend the ECB Academy the following year.

In 2005 he made his England debut in a One-Day International against Bangladesh at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, taking 4-32 and missing out on a hat-trick only by a freak occurrence: the hat-trick ball fell onto the top of Mohammad Ashraful's stumps, but did not dislodge a bail. To demonstrate his continuing progress Tremlett was regularly selected in England's 12 for the Ashes Tests later in 2005 but due to the success and consistency of the first choice bowlers he did not make his debut. He was also selected for the 2005/06 season tour to Pakistan, but had to withdraw because of injury.

Tremlett won the NBC Denis Compton Award in both 2000 and 2001. His grandfather Maurice played three times for England in the 1940s and also for Somerset, and his father Tim played for, and now coaches, Hampshire.
