John Frederick Salvado (born 11 November 1939) is an Australian former cricketer. He played four first-class cricket matches for Victoria in 1964.

Salvado, from the district club Hawthorn East Melbourne, was called up on four occasions during the 1963–64 season to play for Victoria. He was a right-arm fast-medium pacer who could open the bowling. In his four Sheffield Shield matches he took 7 wickets at an average of 46.57.
