John Knox (4 October 1904 10 April 1966) was an Argentine first-class cricketer.

Knox, of Scottish-descent, was born at Buenos Aires in October 1904. He made his debut in first-class cricket for Argentina against the touring Marylebone Cricket Club at Buenos Aires in December 1926, with Knox playing a further four first-class matches against the same opposition the following month.[1] He played two first-class matches for Argentina against a touring Sir J. Cahn's XI in 1930.[1] He was a member of the South American cricket team which toured England in 1932, making five first-class appearances on the tour.[1] His final first-class appearance came for Argentina against Sir T. E. W. Brinckman's XI in 1938.[1] Across twelve first-class matches, Knox scored 575 runs at an average of 31.94, with a high score of 110 not out.[2] This score, which was his only first-class century, came for the South Americans against Sussex.[3][4] He died at Buenos Aires in April 1966.
