Thomas Barnes (11 May 1849 – 22 September 1873) was an English cricketer. Barnes was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace. He was born at Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire.

Barnes made his first-class debut for Richard Daft's XI against the United North of England Eleven at the Recreation Ground, Holbeck.[1] He later made his debut for Nottinghamshire in first-class cricket against Surrey at Trent Bridge in 1872. He played four further first-class matches for the county, all of which came in 1872, with his final appearance coming against Gloucestershire at Clifton College.[1] In his total of five first-class appearances for Nottinghamshire, he scored a total of 65 runs at an average of 10.83, with a high score of 33.[2] With the ball, he took 2 wickets at a bowling average of 11.50, with best figures of 2/23.[3]

A year after playing for Nottinghamshire, Barnes died from typhoid, at the town of his birth on 22 September.[4] His brother, Billy, played Test cricket for England, while his nephew, James Barnes, also played first-class cricket.
