John Burleton Jones-Bateman (21 June 1825  - 29 December 1910) was an English cricketer. Jones-Bateman's batting style is unknown.

Jones-Bateman was born at St Pancras, London. He was educated at Winchester College[1] and later attended Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he studied theology.[2] While studying he played a single first-class cricket match for Cambridge University against Oxford University at the Magdalen Ground in 1848.[3] In a match which won by Oxford University by 23 runs, Jones-Bateman was dismissed for ducks in both innings, being dismissed in Cambridge University's first-innings by Charles Willis, while in their second he was dismissed by Gerald Yonge.[4] His brother Rowland Jones-Bateman played for Oxford University in this match.[1] After his degree ended in 1848, he was ordained as a deacon and priest.[2] In 1849 he was nominated by a private patron to the rectory of Sheldon, Warwickshire, a position he held for 61 years.[2] He died at Sheldon on 29 December 1910.
