Chris Thomas (born 26 May 1959) was an English cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and left-arm slow bowler who played for Hertfordshire. He was born in Billingham, County Durham.

Thomas' son, Matthew, has played for Norton in the North East Premier League since 2006. He captained Norton 1st team and led them to victory in the NYSD Division 1 & 2. Matthew finally got to play with his childhood hero Ryan Sidebottom in 2021.
