Sir Philip Hubert Martineau (28 October 1862–7 October 1944) was an English cricketer. A left-arm fast-medium bowler, he played first-class cricket for the MCC in 1883.
Born in London in 1862, Philip Martineau was educated at Harrow School and played for the cricket team there in 1880 and 1881. He was a student at Trinity College, Cambridge, graduating BA in 1884. He made his first-class debut in 1883 for the MCC against Derbyshire.
Following a minor match against Northumberland in July of that year, he played his second and final first-class match against Somerset. He died in Sunningdale in 1944, survived by his son Hubert, who also played first-class cricket. Two cousins, Alfred and Lionel also played first-class cricket.
Martineau became a solicitor. He was president of the Law Society in 1931-2 and was knighted in 1933.
