Richard Jones (born 22 October 1973) is a cricketer. He started well, captaining the New Zealand Under-19s cricket team in 1993/4. He went on to represent the full senior side in one Test match and five One Day Internationals.

In February 2001, he took a wicket with his one and only delivery in a first-class cricket match.[2][3][4]
