John Burleton Jones-Bateman (21 June 1825 – 29 December 1910) was an English cricketer. Jones-Bateman's batting style is unknown.

Jones-Bateman was born at St Pancras, London. He was educated at Winchester College and later attended Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he studied theology. While studying he played a single first-class cricket match for Cambridge University against Oxford University at the Magdalen Ground in 1848.
