John Hughes (2 July 1825 – 29 January 1907) was an English first-class cricketer.
[1] Hughes' only appearance in first-class cricket came for the South against the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) at Lord's in 1874.
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.
