George Anthony Garrett (born 4 March 2000) is an English cricketer. He plays as a fast bowler for Kent County Cricket Club, having previously played for Warwickshire.

Born at Harpenden in Hertfordshire in 2000, Garrett played age-group cricket for Warwickshire from 2014 before making his Second XI debut for the county during the 2018 season. He was educated at Shrewsbury School where he played for the school XI, and played club cricket for Harpenden Cricket Club in the Hertfordshire Cricket League before moving to play for Shrewsbury CC in 2019. Although still a member of Warwickshire's Academy side, he made his First XI debut for the county side during the same season, taking a place in the side after the fast bowling attack had been reduced due to a series of injuries. He took two wickets on his senior debut in August in a County Championship match against Somerset at Edgbaston, before making his Twenty20 debut for the side later in the month.

After playing for the side during 2020, Garrett moved on to a full-time contract with Warwickshire at the beginning of the 2021 season. He made his List A debut in July 2021, but his opportunities in First XI cricket were limited and after six List A and a single first-class appearance during 2022, he made only one senior appearance for the side during the 2023 season and at the end of the season signed a two-year contract to play for Kent.
