John Thomas Newstead, born at Martin-in-Cleveland, Yorkshire on September 8, 1877, and died at Blackburn, Lancashire on March 25, 1952, was a cricketer who played for Yorkshire.

An all-rounder who batted in the middle order was selected as one of Wisden Cricketers of the Year for 1909, when his 927 runs and 140 wickets were a big factor in regaining the County Championship for Yorkshire the previous season. A bowler of near medium pace, he also imparted the then fashionable in-duckers, or quick off spin.

Newstead had made his debut for Yorkshire in 1903, but then was on the the MCC staff until 1906. Playing eight times for the club, he met with moderate result and was not regualrly used as a bowler.
His emergence in 1908 was prefigured by an extraordinary analysis of 7-10 against Worcestershire at Bradford on his recall to the County eleven at the end of the 1907 campaign. However, Newstead's great season proved to be something of a flash in the pan, for he took only 151 further wickets in big cricket. He lost his place before the end of 1909, he average only fourteen with the bat, and did not appear regularly again, making his final first class, and only appearance of the season, in 1913. His name can be found in Lancashire League cricket after the war playing for Church and Haslingdon. england-cricketbio-stub
