Huw Thomas Waters (born 26 September 1986 in Cardiff) is a former Welsh cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm fast medium pace bowler who played for Glamorgan.
He started playing for Glamorgan in 2005 and was named in England's tour of Bangladesh, but had to withdraw his place because of an injury to his wrist. He has since been able to return to the squad thanks to the subsequent withdrawal of Richard Jones from the team. Glamorgan and England have high hopes for the man dubbed "The next Simon Jones" for his ability to reverse swing the ball at good pace.
He attended the Sixth Form at Monmouth School and was ever-present in the School 1st XI cricket team.
Waters went to Australia for the best part of six months playing his professional sport there.
In 2012, he topped the first class batting averages for Glamorgan, with a batting average of 53.00. This was mainly because Waters was not out 12 times out of 14 innings.
