William Giles Bosisto (born 8 September 1993) is an Australian cricketer who was contracted to South Australia at domestic level. Bosisto represented Western Australia at under-17 and under-19 level, and debuted for the state's under-23 side in the Futures League in November 2011, at the age of 18.[2] At the 2011–12 Australian Under-19 Championships, he captained Western Australia, and was subsequently selected to captain the Australian under-19 cricket team at the 2012 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup.[3] At the competition's conclusion, Bosisto was named "Man of the Tournament",[4] having led the overall batting averages with 276 runs from six matches.[5]

Bosisto had been granted a rookie contract with the Western Australian Cricket Association (WACA) for the upcoming 2012–13 season prior to competing in the World Cup.[6] He made his List A debut for the state in the 2012–13 Ryobi One-Day Cup, replacing the injured Adam Voges.[7] In the match against Victoria at the WACA Ground, Bosisto was run out for a duck after facing five balls in Western Australia's innings, having come in at number six in the batting order.[8] Bosisto's first-class debut came the following season, in the 2013–14 edition of the Sheffield Shield.[9] He scored 44 runs in the second innings of his debut match, which included a 124-run partnership with Marcus North (118 not out) for the third wicket.[10] At grade cricket level, Bosisto plays for the Claremont-Nedlands Cricket Club, having made his first grade debut during the 2010–11 season.[11] Outside of cricket, he attended Scotch College at secondary level, and is currently studying a commerce degree at the University of Western Australia.[1]

He made his Twenty20 debut for Perth Scorchers in the 2017–18 Big Bash League season on 23 December 2017.[12] In April 2021, Bosisto was one of five players to be dropped by the South Australia cricket team, following a season without any wins.[13]
