Matthew Peter Dunn (born 5 May 1992) is an English cricketer. Dunn is a left-handed batsman who bowls right-arm fast-medium. He was born in Egham, Surrey.
Dunn represented England Under-19s, having made his debut for the team against Bangladesh Under-19s in a Youth One Day International in 2009.[1] Following this he went on to play Youth Test and Youth Twenty20 Internationals.[2] During the 2010 season, he made his first-class debut for Surrey against the touring Bangladeshis. He made three further first-class appearances for Surrey the following season, against Cambridge MCCU, and in the County Championship against Derbyshire and Gloucestershire.[3] In his four first-class appearances to date, he has taken 9 wickets at an average of 26.77, with best figures of 5/56.[4] His maiden five wicket haul came against Derbyshire, in his first County Championship match.[5]

Dunn was Surrey's leading first-class wicket-taker in 2014 with 47. He received a call up to the England Lions four day squad in December 2014 for the tour of South Africa.[8] After a decent 2015 two Championship games was all he managed across 2016 and 2017 as injuries hampered his progress. Dunn was part of the Surrey team that won the 2018 County Championship. Dunn showed signs of getting back to his very best when he ran through Somerset with 5 for 43 in a first class match at Guildford in 2019.[9]
Dunn was part of the Surrey team that won the 2022 County Championship. On 30 August 2023 Dunn signed a new contract with Surrey.[10]
