Talha Jubair (Bengali: তালহা জুবায়ের) (born 10 December 1985) is a Bangladeshi cricketer. He played in seven Test matches and six One Day Internationals from 2002 to 2004.

Jubair set a world record for top scoring for his team as a number 11 batsman in the 3rd innings of a Test match (31) and was the first ever batsman from any team to top score for his team when batting at number 11 position in the 3rd innings of a test match. He scored 31 runs, where Bangladesh were bowled out for just 124 in their second innings (which was the 3rd innings of that match) against India in 2004. Jubair was only the 6th number 11 batsman in test history to top score for his team in an innings of a test.[1][2]
