Arthur Christian (22 January 1877 – 8 September 1950) was an Australian cricketer. He was an allrounder who batted left-handed and bowled left armed slow-medium, able to have the ball break both ways. He was a prominent club cricketer in Victoria, also representing the state in first-class cricket, and later moved to Western Australia where he also played both club and state cricket and became the leading all-rounder in the state. After retiring he coached at public schools, served on the W.A.C.A. executive and as a W.A. selector, and wrote for a newspaper.
