Edwin "Ted" Evans (26 March 1849 – 2 July 1921) was an Australian cricketer who played in six Tests between 1881 and 1886.
Born in Emu Plains, New South Wales and educated at Newington College (1865–1866), Evans was an off spinner with an ability to consistently land the ball wherever he wanted to and had some success in Australian first-class cricket.
However, when called up for the national team his accuracy deserted him, and he failed to make a serious impact.
After a career as a professional kangaroo shooter, Evans died in Walgett, New South Wales.
