John Smith (1 July 1919 – 25 June 1999) was a New Zealand cricketer who played first-class cricket for Canterbury from 1943 to 1946.
A middle-order batsman, Smith made his highest first-class score against Otago in 1945–46, when he made 20 and 51.[1] In February 1944, playing against Wellington, he was run out for 43 by the bowler, Ray Allen, while backing up; Allen had previously warned him against leaving the crease too soon.[2]
