John Stevens (1769 – 13 January 1863) was an English cricketer who made 11 known appearances in first-class cricket matches from 1789 to 1793.

Stevens was born at South Ockendon in Essex in 1769. He made his first-class debut for an Essex side against MCC at Lord's Old Ground in 1789, going on to play in ten more matches which are now considered to have first-class status. All of these were for Essex based sides: four for Essex, six for Hornchurch Cricket Club and one for a side organised by Richard Newman which played at Navestock Side in the county. He is known to have played in other matches for Essex between 1793 and 1808 as well as playing for other teams.
