Patrick Douglas Lashley, known as Peter Lashley (born 11 February 1937 in Christ Church, Barbados) was a cricketer. He played four Tests for the West Indies in the 1960s.

A middle-order batsman who became an opener later in his career, Lashley played domestic cricket for Barbados from 1958 to 1975.[1] His top score was 204 against Guyana in 1966-67.[2]

He toured Australia in 1960-61 and England in 1966 with the West Indian team, but was not able to establish himself in the Test side.[3] Geoffrey Boycott stated that Lashley was the worst bowler ever to dismiss him in Test cricket - Boycott was his only Test victim, in the Fourth Test at Leeds in 1966.[4][5]
