Lucas ("Luuk") Petrus van Troost (born 28 December 1969 in Schiedam, Zuid-Holland) is a former Dutch cricketer, who captained the national team. He usually batted between no. 6 and no. 8 in the order, and when in form scored quickly with his hard hitting, while his bowling was relatively rarely called upon but provides a handy option where required.
His brother Andre also played for the Netherlands, as well as for Somerset.
