Edmund John "Ted" Martin (30 September 1902 – 9 June 2004) was an Australian cricketer who played two first-class matches in 1932–33, both against a touring English side under the captaincy of Douglas Jardine, which used Bodyline tactics. In his first match, for Western Australia against the tourists, he took three wickets in each innings bowling leg breaks, including the wickets of Herbert Sutcliffe, Maurice Leyland, Hedley Verity and the Nawab of Pataudi. In his second match, for an Australian XI against the tourists, he failed to take a wicket, recording figures of 0/126 in his only innings, and making a single run before being stumped by George Duckworth off the bowling of Tommy Mitchell.
