Frederick James "Jim" Andrew (born 29 May 1937, died 14 July 1996) was an English cricketer who played for Gloucestershire.

Andrew was always regarded as a bowler; in both forms of the game, he failed to score more than six runs in an innings. However, he did score 29 against Worcestershire Second XI for Gloucestershire Second XI, for whom he took 111 wickets in 55 matches.
