Jonathan Wayne Wells (born 13 August 1988) is an Australian cricket player, who plays for Western Australia in first-class and one-day cricket, and the Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash League (BBL). He originates from Tasmania, and represented Tasmania in both first-class and one-day cricket prior.
Wells spent several seasons on the cusp of selection for Tasmania before making his first-class debut in 2008. He spent the next seven years fighting to keep a spot in the state team while improving his form in both one-day and Twenty20 cricket, playing for the Hobart Hurricanes in the BBL. In 2015 he was cut from Tasmania's squad for the second time and moved to Western Australia to seek more opportunities, earning a contract with his new state in 2016.
Wells played for the Hobart Hurricanes in the BBL for the first six seasons of the tournament before switching teams to the Adelaide Strikers. In his first season with the Strikers he won the tournament after coming up against his former side in the final.
