Ivor Jeffrey Jones (born December 10, 1941, Dafen, Carmarthenshire, Wales) is a former Welsh cricketer who took 44 wickets in 15 Tests for England from 1964 to 1968.

He was primarily a left-arm fast bowler, but his most famous moment came in Georgetown, Guyana in 1967/8 when, batting at No 11, he played out the entire last over of the match bowled by Lance Gibbs, to ensure that England escaped from the match with a draw and to secure a 1-0 series win. This was to be his last test and his first class career also finished in 1968 after an elbow injury ended his career prematurely at the age of 26.

His son, Simon Jones has also played cricket for England.
