Arthur Hadfield Fisher (11 February 1871 – 23 March 1961) was a New Zealand cricketer and businessman.

He was born in Nelson, New Zealand. He played for Otago from 1890-91 to 1909-10 as a left-arm medium-pace bowler, taking 197 wickets at an average of 16.38. Against a touring Queensland cricket team in 1896-97 he took 9 for 50 in the first innings.

He represented New Zealand, in the days before New Zealand had Test status, in matches against Australian and English teams. Against the MCC in Wellington in 1906-07, he took 4 for 25 and 5 for 61 in a 56-run victory for New Zealand.

He died in Dunedin in 1961 at the age of 90.
