Clive Thornton Radley (born 13 May 1944 at Hertford) was an English cricketer who played eight Tests and four one-day internationals for England. His batting average in Tests (48.10) was substantially higher than he achieved in all first-class cricket (35.44), despite his not making his Test debut until the comparatively advanced age of thirty-three. His Test career was ended prematurely by a bad blow to the head on the 1978-9 tour of Australia.
His long career with Middlesex lasted from 1964 to 1987. He scored 26441 runs in first-class cricket in 559 matches, including 46 hundreds, with a highest score of 200. He also played for Auckland in New Zealand. He was selected as a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1979.
On his retirement as a player he became the MCC head coach, in succession to Don Wilson.
