David Edward Paynter (born 25 January 1981) is an English former cricketer who played as a top-order batsman and part-time bowler for Northamptonshire.

He was born in Truro, Cornwall, and played for the Yorkshire academy and the Worcestershire 2nd XI before joining Northamptonshire. After five first-class matches and four List A matches in three seasons with Northants, Paynter returned to the Worcs 2nd XI, but stopped playing in 2004.

David Paynter is the great-grandson of the England and Lancashire batting legend, Eddie Paynter, famous for performances for the national Test side in the 1930s, including the 1932-1933 Bodyline series in Australia, where he scored a match-winning 83 in one match of the series after being called from the sickbed while he had a fever by his captain, Douglas Jardine.[1]
