George Robert Cox (9 November 1859 – 24 February 1936) was an English cricketer who made one appearance in first-class cricket in 1884. He was a right-handed batsman.

Cox made what would be his only appearance in first-class cricket in 1884 when he was selected for the Liverpool and District cricket team against the touring Australians at Aigburth.[1] In a match which the Australians won by 1 wicket, Cox was dismissed for ducks in both Liverpool and District innings, bowled by George Giffen and Joey Palmer in each innings respectively.[2]

He died at Hoylake, Cheshire on 24 February 1936. His brother Alexander Cox was also a first-class cricketer.
