Samuel Percy Jones (1 August 1861 – 14 July 1951) was an Australian cricketer who played 12 Test matches between 1882 and 1888.

[1] A solid right-handed batsman and a handy medium pace bowler, Jones excelled for New South Wales and later for Queensland and Auckland.

On the 1886 tour he scored 1497 first-class runs at 24.95, and two centuries, including his career-best of 151 against the Gentlemen at The Oval.

He was involved, for example, in an incident with W. G. Grace in the 1882 Test Match, when he was run-out after having, under the assumption that the ball was dead, left his crease to pat down the pitch.

Jones worked as a clerk and cricket coach at Auckland Grammar School from 1904 until he retired in 1935.
