Evan MacCormick (15 March 1882 – 13 November 1918) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played thirteen first-class matches for Auckland between 1900 and 1914.[1][2]

MacCormick was educated at Auckland Grammar School and became a barrister and solicitor, a partner in an Auckland law firm.[3] His highest first-class score was 77, the highest score in the match, when Auckland lost narrowly to the touring MCC in 1906-07.[4] He was the outstanding batsman of the Auckland Cricket Association competition in 1914–15, scoring 809 runs at an average of 101.12, with four centuries.[5]

MacCormick died in November 1918 after contracting influenza and then pneumonia.[3]
