Jack White (9 July 1893 – 6 November 1968) was an English cricketer. White was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm fast. He was born at Putney, London.

While studying at the University of Cambridge, White played two first-class matches for the university cricket club, both against Yorkshire at Fenner's in 1913 and 1914. In his first match he took what would be his only first-class five wicket haul with figures of 5/75 in Yorkshire's first-innings of the match. He later played a single first-class match for Surrey against Oxford University at The Oval in 1926, though without success.

He died at East Grinstead, Sussex on 6 November 1968.
