Peter Michael Cronin, (born 21 December 1947) is a former Australian Test cricket match umpire, from South Australia.[1]

He umpired in one Test match in 1980 between Australia and England at Melbourne on 1 February to 6 February 1980, won by Australia by 8 wickets. Cronin's partner was Robin Bailhache.

Cronin umpired six One Day International (ODI) matches between 1979 and 1981. Altogether, he umpired 18 first-class matches in his career between 1977 and 1988.

Alongside fellow Australian Donald (Don) Weser, Cronin umpired the controversial ODI cricket match between Australia and New Zealand played at the MCG on 1 February 1981 and branded as the Underarm bowling incident.[2] This was to be the last international cricket match of their umpiring careers for both Cronin and Weser.[3][4]
