Raymond Peter Jones (born 12 October 1958) is a New Zealand former cricketer. He played first-class and List A cricket for Canterbury and Otago between the 1980–81 season and 1984–85.[1]
Jones was born at Christchurch in 1958 and was educated at Shirley Boys' High School in the city.[2] After playing age group and B team cricket for Canterbury from the 1978–79 season onwards, he made his senior provincial debut for the side in a December 1980 fixture against the new Zealand under-23 side at Lancaster Park.[3]
Initially Jones did not get another opportunity in the representative side and moved to Otago where he played one first-class and two List A matches during the 1982–83 season. He moved back to Canterbury the following season, playing another four first-class and two List A matches over the following two seasons. Often playing as an opening batsman, Jones made a total of 199 first-class runs, with a highest score of 56, his only representative half-century.[3]
