Patrick Ian Pocock (born September 24, 1946, Bangor, Wales) is a former cricketer who played in 25 Tests and one ODI for England from 1968 to 1985.

He was most unlucky not to play more test cricket. He took six for 79 against Australia at in the First Test at Manchester in 1968 but was not selected again in the series and appeared only sporadically thereafter.

An off-spinner, 'Percy' Pocock is probably best known for taking 7 wickets in 11 balls for Surrey vs. Sussex in 1972. He captained Surrey in his final season in 1986, having made his debut for them as long ago as 1964. He finished with 1607 first-class wickets at 26.53, with best innings figures of 9/57.
