John Leonard Sadler (born 19 November 1981, Dewsbury, West Yorkshire) is an English cricketer and cricket coach.

He is the designated head coach of Northamptonshire who will succeed David Ripley following the 2021 season.

As a player, Sadler played county cricket for Yorkshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire, and also represented the Yorkshire Cricket Board.

Sadler joined the Derbyshire coaching staff in January 2014 and took over as head coach on an interim basis in June 2016, following the departure of Graeme Welch. The club later confirmed Sadler would remain in charge for the rest of the season, with the possibility of him retaining the role on a permanent basis.^[1]

After a spell on the Leicestershire coaching staff, he joined Northamptonshire for the 2020 season. He succeeded David Ripley as head coach in September 2021.

Sadler has cited former Leicestershire batsman Tom New as his idol.
