James Alexander Stevenson (24 June 1915 — 5 September 1993) was a Scottish first-class cricketer.
Stevenson was born in June 1915 at Edinburgh, where he was educated at the Edinburgh Academy.[1] A club cricketer for Edinburgh Academical Cricket Club, he made his debut for Scotland against Ireland at Belfast in 1937. Prior to the Second World War, he made two further first-class appearances, against Yorkshire at Harrogate on Scotland's 1937 tour of England, and against Ireland at Glasgow in 1938.[2] He served in the British Army during the war, playing in a minor match for the British Army cricket team against a combined Royal Air Force and Royal Navy side in 1941.[3] Following the war, he made a fourth and final first-class appearance for Scotland against Yorkshire at Scarborough in 1951.[2] Playing as a batsman in the Scottish side, Stevenson scored 127 runs at an average of 21.16, with a highest score of 45 not out.[4] Outside of cricket, he was a stockbroker by profession.[5] Stevenson died in September 1993 at Gullane, East Lothian.
