Jean Cedric Paul (born 13 November 1985) is a Dominican former cricketer who played for Dominica, Windward Islands and the West Indies A cricket team.[1][2]

Paul was born on Dominica in 1985.[2] He played under-19 cricket for Dominica, winning the Windward Islands under-19 competition with the side in 2003,[3] and for the Windward Islands under-19 side before making his debut for the senior Windward islands side in February 2005. His debut came in a Carib Beer Cup match against Trinidad and Tobago at Guaracara Park, his only appearance for the senior side during the 2004/05 season.[2] He went on to play in a total of seven first-class matches for the Windward Islands, two the following season and four in 2006/07.[1] He played his only List A match in July 2005 for West Indies A against Sri Lanka A on the West Indies A team's tour of Sri Lanka.[2] Paul had been called into the tour as a replacement, one of seven after players on the A team tour had been called into the West Indies squad.[4] In 2006 he played his only Twenty20 cricket match, a first-round tie for Dominica in the Stanford Twenty20 tournament against Grenada.[2] He played one more match for Dominica, an unclassified Twenty20 match against St Lucia in 2011, taking two wickets.[1]

Predominantly a right-arm medium pace bowler, Paul took 15 wickets in his seven first-class matches, at a bowling average of 33.53 runs per wicket; his best bowling figures of 4/52 were taken on debut.[2][5] He did not take any wickets in either his List A or Twenty20 matches.[2]
