Leslie Watt (17 September 1924, Waitati, Otago, New Zealand - 15 November 1996, Dunedin, Otago, New Zealand) was a New Zealand cricketer who played one Test for New Zealand, against England in March 1955. Playing as a specialist batsman, Watt made two runs in two innings, as he was twice bowled by England's bowlers. In first class cricket he played a total of 48 matches, making just over 2,000 runs at a batting average of 23.30 - often opening the batting for Otago with Bert Sutcliffe, whose first class average was just over twice of Watt's.
