James John Murphy McDonogh (13 April 1871 - 26 January 1912) was an Irish first-class cricketer.
McDonogh was born at Killarney in County Kerry in April 1871. His debut in first-class cricket came in New Zealand for the North Island against a touring New South Wales team at Wellington in February 1894.[1] His next appearances in first-class cricket came nearly a decade later in British India, when he played two matches for the Europeans against the Parsees in 1903.[1] Emigrating to the United States, McDonogh later played three first-class matches for the Gentlemen of Philadelphia against Jamaica during their 1908–09 tour of Jamaica.[1] Across six first-class matches, McDonogh scored 203 runs at an average of 18.45, with a highest score of 86.[2] This score, one of two half-centuries he made, came for the Gentlemen of Philadelphia against Jamaica.[3] With the ball, he took 10 wickets at a bowling average of 25.70, with best innings figures of 4/53.[2] He died at Philadelphia in January 1912.
