Thomas James Matthews (3 April 1884 – 14 October 1943) was an Australian Test cricketer.

Bowling leg breaks, he is the only player to have taken two hat-tricks in the same Test match.

In the opening Test of the 1912 Triangular Tournament, playing against South Africa at Old Trafford, he took a hat-trick in each innings.

South African wicket-keeper Tommy Ward was his third victim in both hat-tricks, being the only known instance of a king pair on debut in Test cricket.

He also played 12 games for St Kilda in the Victorian Football League in 1907, kicking 18 goals.
