Andrew George Robson (born 27 April 1971) is an English former cricketer. Robson was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm fast-medium. He was born at East Boldon, County Durham.

Robson made his debut for Surrey in a List A match against Derbyshire in the 1990 Refuge Assurance League, in what was his only appearance in 1990.[1] The following season, he made his first-class debut against Essex in the County Championship at the County Ground, Chelmsford. He made a further first-class appearance for the county in 1991, against Kent.[2] He also made three List A appearances in the Refuge Assurance League against Kent, Lancashire and Hampshire.[1] In four List A matches for Surrey, he took 8 wickets at an average of 20.62, with best figures of 3/42.[3] With opportunities limited at Surrey, Robson proceeded to join Surrey for the 1992 season, making his first-class debut for his new county against Hampshire in the County Championship, with him making four further first-class appearances in that season, the last of which came against Durham. In five first-class matches for Sussex, he took 8 wickets at an average of 50.62, with best figures of 4/37.[4] In his only season with Sussex, he did feature more in limited overs cricket, making fifteen List A appearances, the last of which came against Hampshire in the 1992 Sunday League.[1] In his limited overs appearances for Sussex, he took a total of 12 wickets at an average of 36.08, with best figures of 2/14.[3]

He later made two appearances for Northumberland in the 1995 Minor Counties Championship, against Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire.[5]
