John Gregory Thomas (born August 12, 1960, Trebanos, Wales) is a former England cricketer who played in 5 Tests and 3 ODIs from 1986 to 1987. He was a genuinely quick fast bowler, a rare sight in English cricket after the retirement of Bob Willis. But apart from the raw pace, he was erratic and often had injury problems. He matched the speed of the fearsome West Indian pacers on the tour of West Indies in 1985/86 but leaked too many runs with his wayward bowling. Injuries forced him to retire early.
