David Daniel Masters born 22 April 1978, Chatham, Kent, England is an English cricket player who has played for the cricket teams of Kent, and Leicestershire and Essex.

David is a very accurate seam bowler who bowls in the mid to late 70s mph. He had a somewhat inconsistent time with Kent but has had more success with Leicestershire who he joined in 2004.

In 2005 Masters was named as Leicestershire's player of the year after picking up 45 wickets in all competitions, while the 2007 season looks set to be a more successful one. Masters has won the Twenty20 cup twice and has a first class century to his name.

On 20th August 2007 it was announced that Masters would join Essex on a three year contract, and he took 5 wickets on his championship debut for the county in 2008. On 11th May 2008, Master took a career best of 5-17 off 4.2 overs in a one day match against Surrey whilst playing for Essex.
