John Hughes (2 July 1825 – 29 January 1907) was an English first-class cricketer.
Hughes was born at Hertford in July 1825. He played the majority of his cricket for Hertfordshire, who did not participate in major matches. [1] Hughes' only appearance in first-class cricket came for the South against the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) at Lord's in 1874. [2] An excellent right-arm roundarm slow bowler, [1] he took figures of 2 for 48 in the MCC first-innings, before following that up with figures of 7 for 46 in their second-innings. With the bat, he was dismissed without scoring in the South's first-innings by Fred Morley, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for 8 runs by Alfred Shaw. [3] Wisden considered him unfortunate not to play for a leading county of the time, given his skill as a bowler. [1] Besides playing, he also stood as an umpire in two first-class matches in 1875 and 1892. [4] Hughes died at Hertford in January 1907.
