Robert Peter Jones (born 3 November 1995) is an English cricketer who plays for Worcestershire County Cricket Club, having previously made 109 appearances for Lancashire in all formats between 2016 and 2023.[1] He is a right-handed batsman who also bowls right-arm leg spin.

He made his first-class debut on 23 August 2016, for Lancashire against Surrey in the County Championship,[2] and scored his maiden first-class century on 14 September 2016, against Middlesex.[3][4] He made his Twenty20 cricket debut for Lancashire in the 2017 NatWest T20 Blast on 16 August 2017.[5] He made his List A debut for Lancashire in the 2018 Royal London One-Day Cup on 31 May 2018.[6]

In July 2023, Jones rejected a two-year deal to remain with Lancashire, and accepted an offer from Worcestershire instead.[7][8] He was subsequently released on loan to his new county for the 2023 One-Day Cup,[9] and made his debut for them in the County Championship on 5 April the following year.[10]
