Shepherd (first name and dates unknown) was an English cricketer who played in first-class cricket for Caterham Cricket Club and Surrey during the 1760s. He is recorded in the Caterham v. Hambledon match at Guildford Bason in July 1769.

As Shepherd had established his reputation by 1768, he must have been active for some years previously and his career may have begun in the 1750s. He is not mentioned in 1770s reports and very few players were mentioned by name in contemporary reports before then. There are no other references to Shepherd.
