Percy Stanbrook Evans (20 July 1894 – 17 January 1959) was a British-Indian English first-class cricketer who played five matches for Worcestershire in 1928.

Evans made a significant contribution, when on debut against Glamorgan he took 3-84, dismissing Dai Davies, Frank Ryan and Dennis Sullivan.[1] After that he never took another wicket in his professional career, and he never surpassed the 5 he scored in the first innings of that debut game.

Evans was also a gold medal-winning field hockey player, playing under captain Jaipal Singh Munda, winning a gold medal for India in the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
