Padraic James Flanagan (born 9 March 1996) is an Irish first-class cricketer.

Flanagan was born at Dublin in March 1996. He was educated at St Michael's College, before going up to Trinity College, Dublin.[1] From Trinity, he studied in England at St Catharine's College at the University of Cambridge.[2] While studying at Cambridge, he made a single appearance in first-class cricket for Cambridge University against Oxford University in The University Match of 2020 at Fenner's.[3] Batting twice in the match, he was dismissed for 8 runs in the Cambridge first innings by Ben Fisher, while in their second innings he was dismissed for 2 runs by Freddie Foster. With his right-arm medium-fast bowling, he bowled 13.1 overs in the Oxford first innings, taking 3 wickets, while in their second innings he took 2 wickets from 18 overs bowled.[4] Alongside Oxford's Will von Behr who also featured in this match, Flanagan was the first Trinity College graduate to feature in The University Match since Thomas Babington Jones in 1874.[2]
